NEW YORK, March 11, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Perf Go Green Holdings, Inc. ("Perf Go Green") (OTCBB:PGOG), the leader in biodegradable plastic products and everyday green solutions, today announced the launch of PerfPower(tm) Eco-Alkaline Batteries and the first-ever free recycling initiative. Containing 0% lead, 0% mercury, and 0% cadmium, PerfPower(tm) high-performance batteries and packaging materials are recyclable and are made with recycled materials. PGOG encourages consumers to recycle everything through Perf Go Green's www.i-recycled.com, which will be live March 31st 2009.
"The core of any alkaline battery is made from a chemical compound and should not go in the landfill. California is the first state to ban alkaline batteries from landfills, with other states soon to follow," Perf Go Green Chairman and CEO Tony Tracy states, a fact, competitors are weary to admit. "With our PerfPower batteries and free recycling program we hope to engage consumers in the recycling process and hopefully through its accessibility, recycling will become habit."
This is why Perf Go Green will be offering the first free recycling initiative to complete the sustainable life cycle at www.i-recycled.com. By providing a complimentary service, Perf Go Green makes recycling PerfPower(tm) batteries convenient and accessible. We claim full responsibility for our products and hope consumers will recycle all battery supplies in the box provided from www.i-recycled.com, including the batteries and the plastic and cardboard packaging. We can provide a complete eco-cycle from start to finish.
Perf Go Green believes in reusing, recycling, and reducing their impact on the environment as much as possible. From development to disposal, all Perf Go Green products respect our cradle-to-cradle philosophy. Formed with one purpose, one goal in mind-to stop trashing the planet and embrace solutions that will help achieve this goal, Perf Go Green, is happy to provide more products to meet the demand of the eco-conscious consumer.
