Unilever Uses “R” Approach To Keep Its Non-Hazardous Waste Out Of Landfills

February 9, 2016: 12:00 AM EST
Unilever says it has identified the sources of all non-hazardous waste it generates and has devised ways to direct it away from landfills. A year ago, Unilever said 240 of its factories had figured out ways to dispose of non-hazardous waste without using landfills. Another 400 sites – factories, warehouses, distribution centers and offices –in 70 countries have now been added to the list. The company applies a four-pronged “R” approach to waste disposal: reduce, reuse, recover or recycle. The achievement proves that “waste can be seen as a resource with many alternative uses.”

Millennials Will Drive Consumption Trends In 2016, Webinar Reveals

February 8, 2016: 12:00 AM EST
Millennial consumers are expected to have significant influence on consumption trends in 2016, according to the “Top 10 Global Consumer Trends for 2016” webinar. Consumers are likely to continue using social media to rant against greenwashing, or brands’ insincere displays of caring for the environment. Also, demand for recycled and pre-owned products is forecast to gain strength. For millennials, owning an automobile is no longer an “icon of freedom” but more of a “strain on their finances and the environment.”

Clorox Posts Profitable 2nd Quarter, Despite Stagnant Growth In Sales

February 4, 2016: 12:00 AM EST
Despite stagnant sales growth, Clorox posted an 18 percent rise in second quarter profit. Ignoring currency fluctuations, sales grew three percent. Company earnings totaled $151 million, or $1.14 diluted EPS from continuing operations, compared to $128 million, or 97 cents diluted EPS, a year ago. The company said second quarter diluted EPS results were driven largely by gross margin expansion. Flat sales reflected volume growth and price increases, offset by negative foreign currency exchange rates and higher trade promotion spending. Volume for the second quarter was up one percent, due to gains in home care and natural personal care, partially offset by decreases in laundry and water filtration. "Our strategy continues to drive profitable growth," said CEO Benno Dore.
