If you recycle plastics or dispose of them in a landfill, <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® has your best environmental<br />

intentions covered. <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® products will biodegrade* when disposed of in a municipal landfill<br />

and will not affect a product’s recycling characteristics.<br />

<strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® Products will biodegrade in a landfill, residential composting, commercial composting,<br />

or when buried in the ground, tilled into the soil, etc. In short, when it is time to dispose of an<br />

<strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® product, your options to do something good for the environment are almost limitless.<br />

And with the cost being the same as non-biodegradable items of the same type, why wouldn’t you<br />

do this?<br />

30 million tons of plastic waste is generated in the USA each year<br />

Only 7.1% of all plastic waste generated was recycled in 2008<br />

Over 90% of all plastic waste generated was discarded<br />

…approximately 28 million tons of plastic waste was not recycled.<br />

Independent studies prove that <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ®<br />

bottles will biodegrade in a landfill and help<br />

regenerate soil by leaving behind methane<br />

and humus to regenerate the soil.<br />

<strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® products are fully recyclable<br />

in the current recycle stream.<br />

<strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® products have the same long<br />

life as our standard products and are NOT<br />

affected by light, heat, or humidity like Oxo<br />

Degrader and Bioplastics.<br />

Maybe the best part is that <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ®<br />

products cost no more than similar,<br />

non-biodegradable products. Why<br />

wouldn’t you do this?<br />

*Biodegradation as per ASTM D5511-02 standard test determining anaerobic biodegradation of plastic materials under hi-solids anaerobic conditions<br />

independently conducted and analyzed by an independent Research Lab.

RESTROOM FLOOR MATS<br />

Size Matters<br />

<strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® urinal and commode mats are approximately 5% larger than traditional products and<br />

provide greater protection to the floor<br />

Increased Grip<br />

<strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® urinal and commode mats are manufactured with a material that has a high coefficient<br />

of friction - They have better traction<br />

Increased Flexibility<br />

Softer, flexible material conforms to surface irregularities and provides secure placement of mats<br />

ADA Compliant<br />

A 36% reduction in the product profile makes <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® urinal & commode mats ADA compliant<br />

against trip hazards<br />

FAQ<br />

Do the <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® products have a limited shelf life like starch-based plastics?<br />

No. <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® products require an anaerobic (oxygen deprived) environment to begin their decomposition process;<br />

this is the type of environment that exists in a typical municipal landfill.<br />

Can <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® products still be recycled?<br />

Yes! Unlike starch-based plastics, <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® products are readily recyclable.<br />

Do <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® products really biodegrade, or do they simply breakdown into smaller pieces?<br />

<strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® products are proven to biodegrade and render inert humus, CO2, and methane based on the standards<br />

established by the ASTM D5511 test conducted by an independent research laboratory.<br />

How expensive are <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® products?<br />

Tolco is committed to this revolutionary technology. We do not believe doing something good for our environment should<br />

be cost prohibitive, as such, our <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® products will be priced comparable to our standard offerings of the same<br />

product.<br />

What special practices are required for <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® products to biodegrade?<br />

With <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® it is business as usual. If it is most cost effective for you to dispose of in a waste receptacle, please<br />

continue to do so. If you prefer to recycle your plastics, feel free to continue to do so. <strong>Eco</strong><strong>Choice</strong> ® makes being green<br />

simple and cost effective, as it should be.
