Sustainable practices are the topic of conversation in most industries today. Organizations worldwide have a responsibility toward the world we live in, and the pet industry is no exception. At OurPet’s Company (OTCQX: OPCO), there is an emphasis on protecting the environment. OPCO develops and markets high quality, innovative products to improve the health, safety, comfort, and enjoyment of pets. The company develops unique and innovative products, which is why most of them are patented. All products reflect an emphasis on designing problem solving solutions for pets and pet owners. Sustainability is part of this.
More is being done every year to make the pet industry as a whole more sustainable. Most recently, the Pet Industry Sustainability Coalition (PISC) launched the Pet Industry Sustainability Toolkit, which was developed for companies in the pet industry to help reduce their impact on the environment. In addition, work is being done to bring sustainability and pet ownership together. OurPet’s Company does everything in its power to have a minimal impact on the environment whenever a new product is being designed, developed, and manufactured. The company produces products with natural ingredients wherever it can, while maintaining a high level of attention on the safety and happiness of people’s pets.
This year, during its June shareholders meeting, OurPet’s Company brought forward its new product: Switchgrass with BioChar Natural Cat Litter. In the presentation, the company shows its findings, comparing the product to some of its competitors’ offerings. The OurPet’s Switchgrass Litter with BioChar produces less than two percent dust, has no odor after 10 minutes, and shows good moisture absorption and high clumping action. Switchgrass Litter with BioChar was tested in February 2016 by Bureau Veritas Testing and proves that the OurPet’s natural cat litter is the top performer among all its competitors.
