What keeps Capcatchers Green Business
We are delighted that people are taking more seriously these days environment. But do not expect that conservation before it became fashionable to jump on board! Here in Capcatchers.com, have "gone green" for many years. Check out some of the ways we are working to ensure the longevity and health of our planet and visit our = "_blank"> Green landing page for more information!
The Green Machine
The Green Paper Machine Capcatchers Solar PV uses high-efficiency photo solar photovoltaic panels, each producing 230 + watts of CLEAN RENEWABLE ENERGY (zero carbon or greenhouse gases.) There is simply nothing more cleaner or renewable solar energy.
This networked system can expect to find almost all of our business' electricity consumption. And it is almost maintenance-free, too (with the exception of having to shake the snow in winter damn!)
Our Products and Materials
Our flagship product – the bottle opener Capcatcher body – is made of wood that is locally grown and harvested here in New England, usually from Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont forests.
Opening heads are made of steel to a large extent, is recycled by the withdrawn vessels, cars and trucks and discarded equipment. (The same goes for the steel used to produce the cubes.) Furthermore, the first game Capcatcher and steel head are not "disposable objects. They are built to last for generations and probably will.
Catalogs?
Not Capcatchers.com. We believe that large and expensive catalogs are a waste … waste paper in perfect condition and a loss of all resources going to do in them and sending them. They are eliminating a severe headache, too. And let's be honest, the cost of these catalogs is passed to you, the customer, in the price of the item you purchase.
Our catalog is online. Only. And this website is made with 100% recycled electrons! No trees were destroyed and no animals were harmed!
We offer a small booklet to tell you about our products, and will mail you a to you upon request. But we prefer email it to you and offer you first as an alternative.
Packing materials
As much as possible, we use shredded, cleaned, recycled paper and office paper for most of our packaging materials. You know everything that junk mail that the post office offers all of us almost daily? We run ours through our industrial strength shredder, the lint that industrial strength stimulator / glass "and used for packing orders. (Oh, confetti just do not cut it for shipping orders for a glass of our packing material should be the plastic bubble packaging and Styrofoam peanuts).
Rush Processing
We offer a Rush processing option to get your order on its way to fast. How is this true? Well, for the payment of a modest processing fee Rush we will ship your order very quickly. In most cases, this allows your order is sent by the fuel consumption of road transport, avoiding costly air shipments and hostile environment.
Capcatcher metal recycling machine?
Yup … not deceive. Capcatcher A bottle opener facilitates the collection of metal caps for recycling. How many of us are really going to get us to the recycle bin for a bad bottle cap? But if you have a lot of them in a convenient place (like a bag of Capcatcher) is a piece of cake. Just be opened SnapFlap Capcatcher ™ through the recycle bin and bask in the glory of being a "recycler bottle cap.
BY PLEASE do not laugh Department
Get ready! Are you ready? Composting toilet (there … we said it). One of the bathrooms in our office is a Biolet composting toilet … A Swedish built without water, natural alternative that runs on our hands clean, solar photovoltaic energy. And as an extra added bonus, the compost from this gadget helps fuel the flower gardens outside our office entries. Is not it great?
Our Offices
… The use of natural light for most of the workday. When we recently renovated our building, we added a large number of 5 'x 5' skylights and tripled the amount of natural light, except in those dark days and in winter, little electricity is used for lighting. And when we do … CFL, of course.
Better yet, our offices and use fans to flow through ventilation for cooling. Not a single electricity-gulping air conditioner that can be found here. And in these dog days of our summers in New England where even the fans are not enough, we started out early and early so that everyone can go to the lake to cool off!
