GEORGIA-PACIFIC PROFESSIONAL ANNOUNCES 2010 ISSA INNOVATION AWARD ENTRIES

ATLANTA – Georgia-Pacific Professional is proud to announce its SofPull™ Centerpull Tissue Dispenser and the Green by Design® - Dispenser Recycle, Refurbish, Repair Program as entries for ISSA/INTERCLEAN’s 2010 ISSA Innovation Award. This award program recognizes notable products and services developed by manufacturers in the sanitation industry.

The SofPull Centerpull Tissue Dispenser is a first of its kind technology in North America, featuring a completely enclosed tissue roll with one-at-a-time sheet dispensing. The product’s innovative design helps simplify maintenance efforts and promote hygiene, while also reducing overhead expenses and chances for cross-contamination. SofPull dispensers are available with a single, side-by-side or stacked configuration in two color choices – Splash Blue or Translucent Smoke.

“ISSA/INTERCLEAN is one of Georgia-Pacific Professional’s most highly-respected industry resources and partners,” said Bill Sleeper, president of Georgia-Pacific Professional. “We are proud to support the organization’s efforts to highlight the cleaning and sanitation industry’s recent innovations. Our company takes great pride in our product development process and is honored to have our new initiatives in this year’s competition.”

Georgia-Pacific Professional also has entered the Green by Design - Dispenser Recycle, Refurbish, Repair Program. Developed to provide extended value to the use of dispensers, the program promotes environmental responsibility by diverting dispensers from landfills. Georgia-Pacific Professional is the first paper manufacturer to develop a dispenser recycling program for its customers.

Those interested in voting for Georgia-Pacific Professional’s 2010 ISSA Innovation Award nominations can visit www.issa.com/vote. SofPull Centerpull Tissue Dispenser is listed in the “Paper / Plastics” category, and the Green by Design - Dispenser Recycle, Refurbish, Repair Program is listed in the “Services, Technology & Other” category. You may only vote once in each category. Voting is open through Sept. 30, 2010.

Georgia-Pacific Professional works closely with its affiliated recycling company, Harmon Associates, which facilitates the brokerage of six million tons of recovered paper each year.
