Sustainability

We're getting a little greener every day!

 

Last year, BISSELL introduced a line of 2X Ultra Concentrated formulas that offer benefits for you and the earth.  Ounce for ounce, these 2X Ultra Concentrated formulas provide the same cleaning power in half the packaging of BISSELL's non-concentrated formulas.  The new smaller bottle size makes them easier to carry and reduces transportation resources needed to ship 2X Ultra Concentrated bottles.  Which, in turn, cuts greenhouse emissions by 80 percent!

What’s more, BISSELL formulas for use in both portable and upright deep cleaners, as well as 95% of our manual formulas, contain biodegradable detergents and have no phosphates, dyes, optical brighteners or heavy metals. All BISSELL machine formulas carry the EPA’s Design for the Environment (DfE) certification, which is recognized for safer chemistry. And, BISSELL was recently named a “Champion Formulator” in the DfE program's Safer Detergents Stewardship Initiative (SDSI), recognizing BISSELL’s industry leadership in developing environmentally friendly floor-care formulas.

BISSELL’s popular Little Green® also became a little greener. In 2009, the portable deep cleaner started to be produced with a minimum of 50 percent post consumer recycled plastic – an increase from less than 10 percent in 2008. In fact, if every adult in the U.S. purchased a Green Little Green, it would be like recycling 658 million pounds of plastic, or 20 million bags of trash. We are committed to expanding the use of post consumer recycled plastic into more of our products.
