Dogs Go Green

As we get to understand more than ever the importance of keeping the ecological balance of our planet, we create new products that support this delicate balance and bring new hope for the future. By now we realize that the earth抯 resources are not infinite and it is our responsibility to think in a manner that helps efforts to recycle and use what we have wisely.

Thankfully, manufacturers of pet beds put a big emphasis on using recyclable materials or materials that cause no harm to the environment during their production. The mission is rather simple: to supply pet beds which are most comfortable and suitable for dogs and cats and their different needs, while taking into consideration the fine ecological balance at the helm of our priorities.

Let抯 discuss several examples of pet beds, which are designed with special attention to their environmental impact. Although each pet bed has its own uniqueness, these beds are made with special biodegradable materials.

The first dog bed is made with a removable organic cotton cover, helping our earth by reducing the amount of chemicals we put into the ground. The cushion used on the inside of the dog bed is made from 100% recycled IntelliLoft, which was previously plastic soda bottles. Since it takes less energy to clean and recycle plastic bottles than it does to make new plastic, you are not only helping to keep plastic from going to landfills, but lowering the carbon footprint too. This type of a bed will benefit allergic or sensitive dogs.

Another dog bed is filled with SmartFill, a washable and dryable recycled polyester filling. Dog beds filled with this material remain a sensible and practical solution for those interested in 揼reen?products. Because of this, these dog beds can be completely deconstructed, washed, dried and rebuilt allowing the bed to refresh entirely.

Another type of a green product is a pet bed is made out of cozy Eco-Tech polar fleece, which is made entirely from post consumer plastic bottles. This buttercup shaped pet bed is a great example of how green doesn抰 have to be boring.

The last pet bed design combines the softness and comfort of "Eco-Tech" polar fleece, with the rugged durability of waterproof nylon. The foam & fiber wrapped bottom cushion of these dog beds provides superior comfort and support, making this a great orthopedic bed for larger dogs or older dogs with arthritic joints.
