Corporate Initiatives and Responsibilites
ForEverGreen Team
Formed in 2005, BISSELL’s ForEverGreen Team is dedicated to researching, communicating, and implementing strategies to improve BISSELL’s environmental practices in product design, packaging, logistics, and facility design and operations. The teams’ goal is to reduce BISSELL’s impact on the global environment by identifying and implementing sustainability strategies consistent with overall key business objectives.
The ForEver Green team has implemented several recycling programs at the company’s Grand Rapids, MI headquarters:
- Battery recycling
- Paper recycling
- Zero waste home computer recycling
- Styrofoam recycling
Of course, we realize these are just first steps, but we wanted to share with you some of the progress the ForEverGreen Team has made to date:
Well, as you can see, we’re tidying up a bit, and continuing to investigate ways to do even more! We’re committed to making a difference (like maximizing the recycled content in our corrugated packaging, furthering product and packaging innovations, and more). So stay tuned, folks. This is only the beginning.
