Sustainability and Environmental Responsibility: How PureTech Towels Lead the Way in Food Service Surface Cleaning



In today’s food service industry, sustainability and environmental responsibility are no longer optional—they are essential.


As businesses work to reduce their environmental impact and meet the growing demand for eco-friendly practices, choosing the right cleaning solutions becomes that much more important.


KCooper Brands’ PureTech towels offer a sustainable and effective option for foodservice operators committed to environmental responsibility. In this blog post, we’ll explore the significance of sustainability in the food service industry and how PureTech towels are making a positive impact.


The Importance of Sustainability in Food Service


Sustainability in the food service industry involves adopting practices that minimize environmental impact and promote the responsible use of resources. This is important for several reasons:


Environmental Protection


Reducing waste, conserving resources, and minimizing pollution help protect ecosystems and preserve natural resources for future generations.


Consumer Demand


Consumers are increasingly choosing businesses that prioritize sustainability. Demonstrating a commitment to environmental responsibility can enhance a brand’s reputation and attract eco-conscious customers.


Regulatory Compliance


Governments and regulatory bodies are implementing stricter environmental regulations. Adopting sustainable practices can help businesses comply with these regulations and avoid potential fines or penalties.


Cost Savings


Sustainable practices, like reducing waste and improving efficiency, can lead to significant cost savings over time.


How PureTech Towels Support Sustainability and Environmental Responsibility


PureTech towels by KCooper Brands are designed with sustainability at their core. Here’s how they contribute to environmental responsibility:


1. Reduced Raw Material Usage


PureTech towels are made with 50% less raw material compared to traditional towels. This significant reduction in raw material usage helps conserve natural resources and reduces the environmental impact of production.


By choosing PureTech towels, foodservice operators can support resource conservation and contribute to a more sustainable supply chain.


2. 100% Recyclable


PureTech towels are 100% recyclable, making them an eco-friendly choice for foodservice operators.


Unlike traditional cleaning products that end up in landfills, PureTech towels can be recycled, reducing waste and promoting a circular economy. This recyclability helps minimize the environmental footprint of foodservice operations.


3. Enhanced Durability


The superior durability of PureTech towels means they last longer and require fewer replacements. This reduces the overall consumption of cleaning products and minimizes waste.


By using durable and long-lasting towels, foodservice operators can decrease their environmental impact while maintaining high standards of cleanliness.


4. Chemical-Free Manufacturing


PureTech towels are manufactured without chemical additives, ensuring they are safe to use with a variety of cleaning agents without causing harmful reactions.


This chemical-free manufacturing process also means fewer pollutants are released into the environment during production, supporting cleaner and greener manufacturing practices.


5. Improved Efficiency


PureTech towels are designed to be highly effective, with nearly double the particulate pickup capacity and a 95% quat release rate. This efficiency means less product is needed to achieve superior cleaning results, reducing overall consumption and waste.


By improving cleaning efficiency, PureTech towels help foodservice operators use resources more responsibly.
