We have also partnered with Northwestern University’s Paula M. Trienens Institute for Sustainability and Energy. The Institute forms strategic alliances between corporate, civic and not-for-profit partners. By leveraging shared expertise and resources across disciplines and locations, the Institute and its partners are able to discover, develop and deploy sustainability and energy related solutions more quickly and with transformative impacts. In addition to sharing our expertise in material conversion and science and manufacturing, we believe bringing in outside voices can also help to spark new ideas for our products.
Partnerships with nonprofit organizations enable us to expand our efforts to positively affect the world’s water system. In addition to making water-saving products and incorporating ocean recycled plastics into our designs, we are proud to be part of many initiatives to engage people around water education and conservation.
