Sustainable development
has always been one of IQ
Products Company's business strategies. Our efforts to
provide the best outcome for human and natural environments
around us, both now and into the
indefinite future, have given us the means to create an environment
that is clean, safe, and desirable. This is a topic that IQ
does not
take lightly.
Since the beginning, one
of IQ's highest priorities has always been attempting to
secure the future for generations to come in this ever-changing
world in which we find ourselves today.
IQ's product life cycle begins at the end, and ends at the
beginning. By reversing the normal order
of our products origin, we are able to design and create
products with sustainability, and recycling as our main precedence,
providing as a result, excellence in manufacturing, and logistics.
Meeting and surpassing all Volatile Organic Compound (VOC)
regulations while pushing for lower limits, using safer raw
materials, right-size packaging, and 100% recyclable tinplate
steel cans and cardboard boxes which contain 25% post-consumer
recycled material are more examples of our efforts in sustainable
product development.
Our facilities are no exception, our manufacturing
plant and offices include a zero-effluent waste program, energy
conservation program (including natural lighting), paper
and steel recycling program, pallet recycling program, and
a ridesharing program.
Throughout the entire life of the product,
IQ’s
sustainability efforts are present.
By creating individual awareness in our
employees and our suppliers
has also given us years of experience in this segment
of business,
not only in complying with safety and regulatory issues,
but doing all we can to conserve. This created awareness
empowers IQ
with the direction and knowledge needed to continue being
a leader
in the industry, and a trustworthy company capable
of accomplishing
its goals.
