Life Force International Online Retailer Receives Green Office Certification

July 20, 2009 - PRLog -- LiquidWholeFood.com, an online retailer of Life Force International's liquid nutrition products, recently received Greenline Paper Company's Green Office Certification for their eco-friendly practices.  

"It just makes sense," said Carolyn Schlicher.  Schlicher and her husband, Darryl, own and operate the company.  "We are dedicated to offering our customers proven natural and organic supplements to improve health to an optimum level and then maintain it.  You can't be committed to that and then not care about how we steward the same sources Life Force International's products come from."

Greenline Paper's Green Office Certification is given after the company meets criteria evaluating both the facilities of the company and their office practices.  Areas such as specifically purchasing recycled office paper and supplies, using Energy Star equipment, having an energy efficient location, and even the type of cleaners being used are researched.  Schlicher was surprised at how much LiquidWholeFood.com's operation met the steep criteria.  

"So many people think it's expensive to 'go green.'  What people don't realize is that sometimes it's much easier on the bottom line.  For instance, every time someone prints a draft copy of correspondence or something, if the flip side is blank we put it in a bin and then reuse that paper in the printer.  That's like getting double the amount of paper from a ream.  If you calculate how much a box of paper costs and multiply it by two, it's like money in the bank."

LiquidWholeFood.com re-evaluated how "green" their company was after learning that Life Force International had recently replaced the existing lighting system in their shipping facility with sensor-activated 6 lamp T8 high-bay fixtures. This translated to a savings of 133,000 Kwh--enough to power at least 12 houses for a whole year.  Also, Life Force committed to using Forest Stewardhip Council (FSC) paper in quarterly member communication.  

Life Force International is a 25-year old company that has sold Body Balance organic liquid vitamins for that same length of time.  As the company grew, they added other natural liquid supplementation to their product line, as well as powdered mixes for liquid nutrition.  They distribute in New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and the United States.  Life Force International does sales in excess of $50 million. The Schlichers became members of the company in 2006 and began selling online later that year at http://www.LiquidWholeFood.com .  Information about Life Force, their products, and their business opportunity can be found at http://www.WholeFoodLiquidSupplement.com .

Mrs. Schlicher ended with a beginning. "We aren't done with our green self-evaluation yet.  Every day when I take my Body Balance, True Greens, and FlexeoPlus [products in the Life Force line], I remember how we continue this venture to help others.  Constantly looking for ways to improve in this area is just another way to do that."
