Adult Retailer, Scarlet Girl, Goes Green with a Toy Recycling Program and Green Business Certification

Now you can love yourself and the earth, guilt free

Portland, OR, April 06, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Scarlet Girl, an adult toy retailer based in Portland, OR, is the first company in the industry to offer consumers a certified recycling program for unwanted adult toys, and to become a Certified Green Business.

Scarlet Girl celebrates the one year anniversary of their successful toy recycling program this month, but the Green Business Certification is a new achievement for the company. Becoming a Certified Green Business illustrates a commitment to being a good citizen of the community, and to being proactive in establishing environmentally friendly business practices.

There is no firm data on the number of adult sex toys that end up in landfills each year, mainly because the subject is still one that not everyone is comfortable discussing. But the fact remains that when these items, made up of plastics, metal, and electronics, end up in the trash they stay there for a long time.

"We realized that as a product retailer it was our responsibility to offer a proper disposal solution, too." said Vicki Kriner, a founding member of Scarlet Girl. "Our recycling program was designed under the guidance of an environmental engineer, and achieving a Green Certification was a natural extension of a commitment to reduce our impact on the environment."

"To encourage clients to recycle with us, we offer a $10 credit at our online store at www.ScarletGirl.com when they do. We plan to work directly with toy wholesalers and manufacturers as well, and have already been approached by a few to handle their recycling needs."

In addition to their recycling program, Scarlet Girl is now a Green Business. To become Green Certified, a business agrees to adopt a voluntary set of guidelines designed to increase efficiency, and reduce waste and energy use in day-to-day business practices. These guidelines range from shutting down computers at the end of the day, to recycling used office supplies, to putting office lights on timers.
