CynerGreen opens a first store and one of a kind “Green Boutique”

Recently, CynerGreen held a ribbon cutting and opened its first “green boutique” located just outside of Little Rock, in Cabot.  The store features the entire CynerGreen line of reusable stainless steel water bottles as well as green lifestyle products including Healthy Tap portable water filters, reusable shopping bags and Fair Trade products.  The store is the flagship boutique and first of its kind in the city of Cabot, state of Arkansas and surrounding states.  “It’s a place where consumers can easily find everyday, affordable options to living a greener, cleaner lifestyle” Danelle Hoffer, President and CEO of CynerGreen stated.  She continued to reinforce a message of eco-conscious living by stating, “Our goal with these easy to navigate stores, is to educate first about environment then offer products that help people to truly live and breathe greener lives.”  Outside the store, consumers can drop off their used cell phones and batteries to be recycled, and in return, receive a gift card to shop in the store. 

A unique feature of the first store is the construction methods used.  Everything used to build the store, warehouse and offices was recycled including materials, furniture and fixtures.  “Down to the shelving in the warhouse and the low flow toilet, we took all aspects into consideration” said Joe Hoffer, CFO of CynerGreen.  “The intention was to create the least impact on the environment and our surroundings.” It’s easily noticable from the moment you enter the store.  From stained concrete floors to open ceilings and the innovative use of natural light flowing into the office areas, all details were considered in this simple but trendy green concept store.

A special shopping experience awaits and includes a bit of environmental education, especially where kids are concerned.  In the CG Kidz section you’ll find the reusable water bottle designed by Riley Hoffer, the owners daughter and USGBC Youth Leader.  Posters stating facts and information on how to make a difference in your community can also be found.  Riley is on hand some afternoons to share about the message of environmental stewardship and facts about plastic water bottles.

Sustainability made Simple

for Hotels and Resorts

August 25, 2009   Simple, effective, visible green programs are among the easiest ways to send a message of corporate social responsibility.  CynerGreen, the leading authority on sustainable hydration solutions in the hospitality industry, has launched Bottle Free™ programs designed for hotels and resorts. 

Becoming a Bottle Free™ hotel or resort is simple.  By eliminating the purchase and distribution of plastic water bottles in retail areas, guest rooms, conference services, back of the house, and replacing them with a reusable solution, a hotel can become certified Bottle Free™. 

This year alone, over 73 billion beverage cans and plastic water bottles have been tossed into landfills and incinerated.  And, it should be noted that only 12-14% of plastic water bottles are ever recycled according to the National Recycling Coalition.

Danelle Hoffer, President and CEO of CynerGreen shared the importance of the significance of this important program to the industry.   “When a hotel chooses to become Bottle Free™, it is making a contribution to the environment as well as to the health and wellness of its guests and employees for years to come.  Plastic water bottles continue to be a source of concern because of the amount of waste generated each year.   Additionally, the public is becoming more informed and is questioning BPA content in plastics and other epoxy resin lined bottles.  Obtaining Bottle Free™ certification will compliment your current green efforts and take them to the next level. “

CynerGreen’s proprietary Bottle Free™ solutions, pave the way for hotels, cities, communities, organizations, events and schools to eliminate bottled water from their environment.  The company offers a complete line of hydration products and services including:  adult and children’s reusable, stainless steel water bottles, HealthyTap™ natural portable water filters, reusable shopping bags, high volume hydration stations and certification programs, all exclusively offered by the CynerGreen and tailored to the hospitality and meetings industry.

CynerGreen offers healthy alternatives to bottled water offering water filters, reusable water bottles and programs to meet demands.

Little Rock, AR July 13, 2009 — Worldwide concern over BPA (Bisphenol A) used to make plastic bottles for water continues to be a hot topic of discussion, this week seen on FOX, ABC and CBS, even on Twitter.  Thousands of ‘tweets’ are appearing daily, further educating the public and demanding changes, ultimately a proposed ban on bottled water in some communities.  This outcry for change demonstrates the need for the American public to have healthy alternatives.  Not only is it disturbing that the FDA’s standards are low regarding consumer safety of bottled water, but also that consumption of bottled water has skyrocketed.  Consumers are downing nearly 60 million bottles a day. This year alone, 73 billion bottles and beverage cans have already been littered, tossed into landfills and incinerated.

To meet this demand, CynerGreen, a leading manufacturer of reusable stainless steel water bottles and hydration solutions, announces it has merged with HealthyTap, the world’s first on-the-go, portable water filter solution.  HealthyTap has been dubbed the organic “miracle” filter of water due to its ease of use and natural ingredients. The small “tea bag” size filter, quickly removes chlorine and captures impurities, adds minerals, and adjusts tap water to a healthier pH.  All while dramatically improving the taste and scent of your water. 

Danelle Hoffer, President of CynerGreen expressed the importance of this merger.  “Choosing a reusable water bottle is about a lifestyle change.  You’re not just eliminating harmful plastics from your life but making the choice to become healthier by drinking more water.  The addition of HealthyTap to the CynerGreen product line offers a complete healthy, hydration solution.  Nowhere else will you find a reusable bottle and tiny miracle filter that will allow you to take your water on the go so easily and at such an affordable price for your entire family.”

CynerGreen is a leading authority on Bottle Free™ solutions, paving the way for entire cities, communities, organizations, events and schools to eliminate bottled water from their environments while offering alternative hydration.  The company offers a complete line of products and services available through retailers and their website for individuals, fundraisers, and wholesalers.  Products include adult and children’s water bottles, portable filters, reusable shopping bags, hydration stations and certification programs.  To find out more about CynerGreen and HealthyTap call 501.605.0197 or visit www.cynergreen.com
