Green Statement

Recycle & Reuse. The primary source of material for Nats Pet Mats is  unused and re-purposed manufactured vinyl flooring–which means no more added  pollution to our environment by ordering additional materials on which to paint your mat. Most of the packaging is made from cardboard and is made from recycled paper. It  is completely recyclable after use, and re-use.  In terms of the hierarchy of actions by green businesses (and personal behavior), the highest ranked and best use of resources is to first reduce the original waste we create and second to re-use what is available to us, maybe several times, and third, to recycle everything else.  Keep in mind that your pet food place mat is reusable.  It’s easy to clean and is long-lasting. If necessary, it can easily be cut to smaller sizes for other re-uses.

Reduce Waste. By reducing our packaging and avoiding  plastic as much as possible, we adhere to green principles.  Most plastic made today is non-recyclable due to complicated carbon molecule patterns within the infinite variety of plastics and lack of motivation on the part of the plastic industry. I can’t identify what companies the entire plastic industry consists of, but vinyl flooring manufacturers are certainly a part of it.  I believe it’s responsible behavior to re-use this flexible, durable material.
