The Green Hippo Story
Capitalizing on more than sixty years of combined experience in environmental testing and evaluation, product development and packaging, and environmental law, and recognizing the need for grounded leaders in the growing green movement, Green Hippo Natural Organic Products, Inc. was founded in 2007. Specializing in the development, marketing and distribution of the highest quality natural and organic personal care, home care, pet, equestrian and agricultural products, Green Hippo is committed to becoming a leader of the green movement. Green Hippo's President, Ridge Conlan, attests to this commitment: We created this company to enable our own families to do our part in making the environment safer by using organic products in our daily lives. The future starts now, with us, and we are determined to make a change for the better. Our products enable everyone to join us in effecting this positive change.
In promoting its products, a company's name should accurately reflect its ideals. With this in mind, the Green Hippo name was carefully selected. A hippopotamus is very docile by nature; however, when challenged, the hippo becomes very aggressive in protecting its environment. Like our namesake, Green Hippo's products are gentle, yet devastatingly effective in fighting germs, bacteria and odors, while at the same time being pleasing to use.
Many companies peddle products which claim to be natural or organic. Recently, however, many of these same companies have been hit with lawsuits by State Attorney Generals arising from the fact that their supposedly organic products actually contain the carcinogen 1,4 Dioxane. It's one thing to pay lip service to the green movement in the hopes of turning a quick buck. But Green Hippo is strikingly distinct from these imposters. Because of our painstaking, protracted and costly product development and formulation, we know that our products are truly safe for the user and the environment. In this regard, all of our products are non-toxic, biodegradable, 1,4 Dioxane free, triclosan free, paraben free, and free from any animal testing. And our pet, equestrian and agricultural products are certified organic by the NOP (National Organic Program).
So what does it mean to be green?
Green Hippo's Chief Executive Officer, Curtis A. Westfall answers the question this way:Being green means much more than what soap you buy. It begins with an understanding that we are all on this planet, now, together. We all need to, and can, work together every day to protect and preserve the planet for future generations. Reflective of this ideal, Green Hippo is committed to corporate involvement. Green Hippo is presently in discussions with Heal the Bay a charitable foundation whose mission it is to make Southern California coastal waters and watersheds, including the Santa Monica Bay, safe, healthy and clean. Once these discussions result in a final agreement, a portion of Green Hippo's profits will be donated annually to Heal the Bay. Similarly, Green Hippo has staffed booths and donated a portion of its revenues to these charitable causes: William Shatner's 18th Annual Hollywood Charity Horse Show; Las Amigas de Las Lomas 51st Annual Charity Horse Show; the 2008 Fiesta for the Spanish Horse at the Los Angeles Equestrian Center; and the 2008 Memorial Day Classic Hunter-Jumper Grand Prix.
