Waterless Co., a manufacturer of no-water urinal systems in the United States, has earned 4.5 out of a possible 5-in the new Environmental Leader Technology Reviews Program.
The program recognizes excellence in products and services that provide companies with energy and environmental benefits.
A panel of independent judges, from such well-known companies and organizations as PepsiCo, Staples, The University of California (Berkeley), Owens Corning, Yahoo Inc., and others, determined the scores.
According to Klaus Reichardt, CEO and founder of Waterless Co., "Not only is this a great honor for us, the Environmental Leader Technology Reviews Program also helps building owners and managers make solid purchasing decisions when selecting environmentally responsible products based on the conclusions and evaluations of qualified experts."
Paul Nastu, publisher of Environmental Leader, indicated that the caliber of entries was impressive and truly showed the innovation taking place in the industry today.
"The judges had their work cut out for them. It was a tough playing field for those that entered and the products that scored 3.5 stars or higher are those the judges found to have viable attributes that set them apart from others in the field" Natsu says.
The results of the program are now available in a "Hall of Fame," specifically created on the Environmental Leader Web site. The Hall of Fame features all products that scored 3.5 or higher.
