PLANO, TX--(Marketwire - December 28, 2007) - Ralph Oats and Cathy Oats, Founders of Wellness
International Network, Ltd. (WIN), an undisputed leader in the health and
nutrition industries, known for their top-selling weight management line,
BioLean System, are pleased to join their city, Plano, Texas, in efforts
to reduce, reuse and recycle in the coming year.
In 2007, the City of Plano challenged residents to increase their recycling
to meet a city-wide goal of 25,000 tons from October 1, 2007 to September
30, 2008, and Ralph Oats and Cathy Oats have dedicated Wellness International Network in joining
this effort with an increased company-wide recycling program with multiple
recycle stations throughout their 81,000 sq. ft. facility.
"For over a decade, we've encouraged our employees to find new ways to save
energy and be environmentally conscious," says Ralph Oats. In 1995, WIN
went "paperless" when they incorporated document imaging programs to
maintain company records. More recently, WIN replaced the use of Styrofoam
peanuts with recyclable paper packing materials in their thousands of
shipments of health products, including the well-known weight-loss
supplement BioLean
II. Many of WIN's nutritional supplements are also packaged in
high-density polyethylene (HDPE), or number 2 recyclable plastic bottles
and the company employs energy efficient lighting.
