Community Outreach

Plant a Forest Initiative

We partner with Vermont-based One Tree Planted (onetreeplanted.org) to plant a tree for every kilogram of product we deliver to our customers.

Forest Built on Citropol®:

Citropol® renewable liquid polymers are derived from trees.

When consumers buy products containing Citropol®,
not only are they guaranteed superior performance, but they are also making a positive contribution to our planet.
