Big Shrimpy's Earth-Friendly Philosophy & Mission
Big Shrimpy creates pet products that are comfortable and functional for pets, stylish enough for any living space, and include design features useful to pet owners. Within these parameters, Big Shrimpy strives to wisely use Earth’s resources by designing their products to last longer than typical pet products and by using recycled materials in the majority of their products.
Big Shrimpy emphasizes manufacturing processes that reduce the amount of natural resources withdrawn from the Earth. They do this by: 1) salvaging waste materials from other industries to use in their products, thus diverting waste from landfills and reducing their company’s demand for new raw materials, and 2) designing products to have a longer than average life in order to slow the cycle of throw-away-and-buy-another cycle, again reducing the need for new raw materials.
Big Shrimpy “packages” these environmentally friendly characteristics in products that are both eco-friendly and functional. Over 93% of Big Shrimpy products sold use recycled materials! Big Shrimpy also donates a percentage of sales to a nonprofit organization that develops environmentally sustainable business practices.
