“We’re very pleased that the Dorel Juvenile Group has selected our Hybrid Resins® for its juvenile products that are found in hundreds of stores around the country and distributed by major retail chains,” said Frederic Scheer, chairman and chief executive officer of Cereplast. “It is encouraging to see more and more manufacturers developing and manufacturing products using more sustainable alternatives to petroleum-based plastic products.”
The Dorel Juvenile’s bioplastic small furniture collection is the first of its kind in the juvenile industry. “Parents can feel good about caring for their children and caring for the earth with these products,” said Vinnie D’Alleva, executive vice president of business development for Dorel Juvenile. “Our bathtub, potty, stepstool and booster are launching under the Safety 1st Nature Next brand, a brand trusted by parents all over the world. We are proud to lead the way with this exciting new technology that allows us to provide eco-conscious products that meet our high standards of quality.”
Dorel Industries is a Canada-based provider of juvenile products and a bicycle company.
