End the Disposable Trend

It’s time for a change of consciousness! 

We are changing the way consumers use, purchase and consider cleaning with the spray mop systems they already own and love. The big brand mop companies have convinced society that you should feel euphoric about “one-use” products that need to be discarded after using them only one time. Relying on disposable refills has been a “programmed” thought process by these big brands, however the time has come for de-programming, as consumers have become fed up with disposable trends. 

Thank goodness the disposable era is finally losing steam. It’s time to bring relief to the frustrated millions who have been lured in by the ease and convenience of spray type mop systems, only to realize after the purchase of these mops, that they have become a slave to the refills. We offer a product that is the first of its kind and solves the wide spread problems consumers have encountered associated with disposable refills, by giving them an empowering new solution to eliminate the repeat expense that disposables demand, while bringing forth a top quality, outperforming, superior alternative.

As we evolve more and more into an environmentally conscious society, we look for ways to be an active participant in eliminating the amount of unnecessary waste on our planet. The most basic form of recycling is to reuse something over and over again for the purpose in which it was intended. When you think of the vast differentiation between using the Green Glider that can last for years, compared to disposable pads that last for minutes and then are thrown away after just one use, this extreme comparison merits the “Green” status of our product. Reusable!

Simply put, people who Reuse and Recycle are living Greener than those who don’t. Green Glider mop pads will dramatically reduce the waste incurred from discarding these disposable refills into our already saturated landfills, and lower the overall carbon footprint by requiring fewer trips to the market. Over 100 Million disposable mop pads are buried beneath out planet’s surface each year, i.e. well over 1 Billion disposables tossed in to our landfills since the dawn of disposable refill mop pads about 10 years ago.

The idea is to manage our carbon footprint. Everything we do (or don’t do) has an impact on our planet – our carbon impact. However, there’s a lot more to the footprint than just carbon. What we must do is think of our overall “footprint”, and try to tread as lightly as we can. Here is one way we can eliminate unnecessary waste from our everyday habits. Every little bit helps, and with the use of Green Glider reusable mop pads, we can start to make a significant change if we all work together to End the Disposable Trend!

The Green Glider Company will be researching ways to recycle worn out Green Glider mop pads. Instead of consumers discarding them, we are designing a program in which depleted Green Glider mop pads can be sent back to us to be recycled instead of being thrown away.

We are very proud to be in the process of this noble cause and look forward to offering this extended “Green” program to complement our already environmentally beneficial product. So when skeptics blurt out “well, you have to throw it away eventually”, we can say, “actually, no you don’t”!

Find the Green Glider in Walmart Stores!

For centuries, moms everywhere have been creating solutions to their everyday needs. And increasingly those inventions are ending up on television, in stores, and in homes across the nation. As showcased on Fox News  recently, that's precisely what lead Tanya Lewis to invent Green Glider mop head replacement.

Lewis has always looked for ways to save money, "During my childhood money was always tight. We re-used everything and nothing went to waste. Back then society was not taught to feel euphoric about throwing something away immediately after just one use. Now, as a mother, I’ve retained the values from my childhood years by reusing...and reducing unnecessary waste in our home by being creative and smart."

Determined to find a solution that was reusable, effective and saved money to End the Disposable Trend®, she realized the marketplace had little to offer. Microfiber pads picked up dirt but didn't absorb. Shammy was great at absorbing but just pushed the dirt around. But put them both together and you've got a patented solution's a proven winner.

Tens of millions of consumers already own one of these all-in-one mop systems that sadly lack the most important cleaning feature: an adjustable, reusable mop pad with top quality, durability and most importantly, absorption. Consumers love these new mop systems that have taken the floor cleaning industry by storm, but these devices aren’t what actually cleans your floor. It’s the “mop pad” that does the cleaning. Lewis has invented the eco-friendly mop pad so consumers can upgrade the mop they’ve already got. As sales rapidly climb, Lewis excitedly extols the benefits of being the creative mastermind behind Green Glider, the hottest new household brand to “Sweep the Nation!”

Now, by signing with Wow! Is Me, Lewis is taking her company to retail markets and increased word of mouth as mom's everywhere discover Green Glider. Wow! Is Me founder Adryenn Ashley was a fan of Green Glider before taking them on as a client, "As a mom, I'm hyper vigilant about my environment, using only organic all natural products, and with Green Glider, floors are so easy to keep clean that I don't freak out when my son picks up a piece of food off the floor and pops it in his mouth before I can stop him."
