Ecologically Friendly Products
Our Planet Spins All Year Round, So Why Wait for Earth Day to be Eco-friendly? The ECO Kit™, now available from Wooster, is designed to help make your painting surface and the environment beautiful all at the same time.
The 5-piece ECO Kit meets the demands of painters that are conscious of our ecological challenges. This kit includes a sturdy metal 1-quart tray and a 9-inch cage frame for repeated use. Also found in this package are a biodegradable tray liner and two 9-inch ECO Roller™ covers.
The fabric of the ECO Roller is made from 100% certified recycled plastic PET (polyethylene terephthalate) bottles. The fabric is free from the presence of dyes or chemicals used for coloring. It is available in 3/8-inch pile, and is recommended for use with all flat paints on smooth surfaces, like most walls and ceilings. The ECO Roller is also sold separately in a convenient 2-pack.
The ECO Liner™ is made from recycled materials, and it is also biodegradable! The clear plastic contains special additives to make it fully degrade after disposal. It will become a humus-like biomass in any landfill or compost system within one to five years.* The form-fitting ECO Liner assists in extending the life of Wooster’s R402 Deluxe Metal Tray (included in the kit). The ECO Liner is also available for purchase individually.
When picking up an ECO Kit you are not only getting a number of great products all in one package, you’re also taking another step towards a ‘green’ footprint.
The ECO Kit** has an approximate retail price of $12.95 USD. Ask for catalog number RR788. The ECO Roller 2-Pack (catalog number RR707) and ECO Liner (catalog number BR407) are available for approximate retail prices of $4.89 USD and $1.49 USD, respectively.
* Paint and/or disposal method may impact biodegradability.
