US-based? ‘I Spy’ Manufacturing Month Challenge kicks off
It's game time! The first-ever ‘I Spy’ challenge from Sellars Absorbent Materials is ready to roll as part of Manufacturing Month. Beginning October 1st, be on the lookout for Sellars' products.
When you see one, take a pic and head to the company's Facebook page for a chance to win a $500 prize package. Photo submissions can come from anyone and anywhere in the US.
Simply capture Sellars' product on the shelf, at work or home or in any other locale or destination. Once the product is sighted, snap a picture and share it as a comment on that week's I Spy Facebook post, noting where it was taken.
During Manufacturing Month, four winners will be drawn and sent a prize package that includes:
* Patagonia Tote Pack - made from 100% recycled nylon
* Voited Picnic Blanket - made from 100% recycled plastic bottles
* Sunski Sunglasses - made from post-industrial scrap plastic
* Handmade Cozy - made from repurposed climbing rope
* Moleskine Notebook - made from Forest Stewardship Council-certified paper
* Six-pack of Bravo paper towels - made from 90% recycled paper and cardboard
* $200 Visa e-card
Many businesses and consumers may be familiar with Sellars' Toolbox Blue Shop Towels and Toolbox White Rags. The Toolbox blue towels are made with 60% recycled fibre and are found in auto shops, manufacturing facilities, garages and homes. For DIYers, the white rags are great for painting, staining, wallpapering and many other uses indoors and out. Plus, they're made from up to 45% recycled fibers.
The company also offers a number of other products that are used far and wide. Its Clean Task line includes food service and utility wipers.
Sellars' wiping products for the commercial markets are sold nationally through janitorial/sanitary, industrial, safety and speciality distributors.
