Otis Goes Green… Again
OutdoorHub 08.30.12
In Spring 2012, Otis Technology launched a new line of environmentally friendly cleaners – the O12 line. With four unique formulations, Otis offers a safe, yet highly effective line of products to clean carbon, copper, lead, plastic residue, and other fouling.
On August 21, 2012, the O12 General Purpose Blend became certified by the USDA as a biobased product. This seal of approval indicates that this product contains at least 25% biological products, renewable agricultural materials, or forestry materials. The O12-GP cleaner exceeds that, with a biobased amount of 56%.
“Like hunters and outdoor enthusiasts, we want to help preserve the outdoors for future generations. That’s why our daycare playground is made from recycled rubber, our machinery lubricants are reused, we’re continually improving our packaging to a more earth-friendly material, and now we offer an earth-friendly line of cleaners. Certification of our O12-GP further solidifies our commitment to preserving our environment,” says Len Nelson, VP of Sales and Marketing.
In addition to the General Purpose cleaner, Otis offers a Carbon Remover, Copper Remover, and Shotgun Blend/Plastic Remover. It is expected that these products will receive their USDA BioPreferred® certification in the near future.
