Earth Friendly Products Unveils New Hi-Tech Facility in New Jersey (Video)

Earth Friendly Products Opening

Earth Friendly Products, the world’s largest environmentally-friendly cleaning products manufacturer, held the grand opening of its new East coast high-tech facility in Parsippany, NJ on Earth Day last Wednesday.

The new facility on Lackawanna Avenue has created 45 jobs and hired workers from New Jersey at a wage of $17 per hour, one of the highest minimum wages in the country.

“New Jersey was a strategic choice for EFP’s facility, as the products, proudly filled in NJ, are shipped throughout the northeast US and across Europe – showcasing the company’s commitment to carbon neutrality,” said Earth Friendly Products CEO Kelly Vlahakis-Hanks.

The grand opening attracted many local and national officials such as Parsippany-Troy Hills Mayor Robert J. Peluso, and Assistant director of the Environmental Protection Agency Jim Jones, among others. During the event the company received a certification for achieving a zero-waste operation, as well as showcased its new environment-friendly “Safer Choice” logo.

After lunch all attendees were sent home with an EFP goodie bag that included the company’s popular cleaning products as well as living salads from Radicle Farms, cheese from Bobolink Dairy & Bakehouse and organic starter plants from Green Village – all local New Jersey businesses.
