Windshield Cleaner Goes GREEN
303 Products has manufactured windshield cleaner tablets for over 10 years. This product has already kept millions of plastic containers from being recycled or added to our landfills.
The idea behind windshield washer cleaner in something other than gallon bottles is threefold: Minimizing environmental impact, producing a high quality product at 75% less cost, and cutting shipping costs by a minimum of 90%.
Amazingly, one pallet of tablets produces 150,000 gallons of windshield cleaner. This is equivalent to 1,137 pallets of full gallon containers of pre-mixed windshield cleaner weighing 1,387,500 lbs and would take forty-four full truckloads to transport!
The Environment: Consider the environmental impact of not producing and transporting all those gallons of product. First the petrochemicals and the energy saved by not manufacturing 150,000 gallon plastic bottles & caps. Then there is the petroleum not consumed and emissions not incurred by not hauling all these gallons to destination. And finally, there’s 150,000 fewer plastic containers to recycle or to be discarded into landfills. What was previously a very wide and deep carbon footprint… virtually eliminated.
Transportation Costs: Using windshield cleaner in a tablet form, there’s 99.87% less weight to truck around the country. Putting transportation costs into perspective, hauling forty-four truckloads of gallon windshield cleaner from California to Chicago costs $166,452. Shipping one pallet of tablets costs $955 dollars. This is a freight cost savings of $165,497. A tremendous amount that otherwise would have come from consumers pocketbooks.
Non-Toxic – Biodegradable: Windshield cleaner tablets are made from food-grade ingredients with a specialized synthetic detergent. They dissolve completely in water making a high-quality, richly blue cleaner. Each super-concentrated tablet makes up to 1 gallon. Simple to use. Just add to 1 gallon water or drop in reservoir of clean water.
Winter Use: Approximately half the U.S. population can use tablets in water year around. The balance of the population lives where it’s cold enough during part of the winter that windshield solvents must be used. Such products contain methanol and are infamously poor cleaners. Adding a tablet to any windshield solvent triples the cleaning power.
After years of success with fleet sales, recently 303 Products began making product for consumers, a 5-tablet tube mounted on a small blister card. Costs less than $1.00 per gallon. And there is convenience. Those gallon containers are heavy and cumbersome. The tablet card easily stores in the glove box until needed. With each card the consumer can make up to 5 gallons of cleaner.
Super-concentrated windshield cleaner tablets are not only interesting, but exciting. It is truly amazing that something this small and simple can have such a substantial and beneficial impact on our environment.
