Hey there! Let’s chat about what’s happening here at Ice Bucket America and how we’re shaking things up in the ice vending game with a green twist. Grab a seat and let me fill you in on our cool journey toward sustainability!

Reducing CO2 Emissions:

We’re on a mission to shrink our carbon footprint, and we’re doing it in a couple of cool ways:

  1. Reducing Gas Consumption:
    • Each Ice Bucket America machine cuts down a whopping 5000 pounds of CO2 emissions every year. It’s very important for us to make that impact!
    • Get this – if we set up 20 machines within a 40-mile area, we can ditch daily ice deliveries and say goodbye to a whopping 100,000 pounds of CO2 emissions annually. Now, that’s a game-changer, and we’re proud to be part of it!
  2. Reducing Electric Consumption:
    • Traditional ice production can be a bit of an energy hog, using around 0.172kWh/lb. But not us! We’re way above average on energy efficiency, spending just 0.1kWh/lb to produce ice right on the spot.
    • We’re cutting down CO2 emissions by a massive 40% compared to the old-school ways of making ice in the USA.

Reducing Plastic Consumption:

We’re not just about staying frosty – we’re serious about tackling plastic waste too:

  1. Bulk Ice Sales and Packaging Options:
    • You get to choose how your ice is wrapped up – whether it’s in plastic bags, ice coolers, or reusable bags.
  2. Complimentary Reusable Bags Initiative:
    • As if that’s not cool enough, we’re giving out free reusable 10lb bags to our loyal customers with every delivery.

Ice Bucket America isn’t just selling ice; we’re selling a whole feel of sustainability and friendliness. So, if you’re looking for a hands-free, planet-loving investment, Ice Bucket America is the way to go. It’s not just about making money – it’s about making a positive impact on the world. Cheers to greener profits, frozen assets, and a cooler planet!
