A Note on Sustainability

With many institutions working to become more environmentally friendly, disposable products play a significant role in sustainability initiatives. Schools and students alike are also becoming much more aware of “environmental impact” and need to know their providers are genuine when it comes to sustainability efforts.

Our Foodservice product line is Eco-Forward®, a term unique to Solo. It expresses Solo’s ongoing commitment to developing greener alternatives that contribute to a more environmentally sustainable future by taking steps forward on the ever-changing continuum of sustainability.

By choosing to use Solo’s Eco-Forward® products, students will appreciate the willingness to support options that lessen environmental impact and reflect their concerns about sustainability. Solo sales consultants will find solutions that meet specifications for functionality, durability, and price.
