With our ECOCOOL collection we’re headed down even greener pastures — and with our NEW ECOCOOL Trailmate, we’re doing it on all-terrain wheels! This cooler collection is the first of its kind to be made with recycled resin. That means we’re taking post-consumer plastic — mostly discarded plastic yogurt cups and milk jugs — that would otherwise end up in landfills throughout the world and transforming it into a recycled resin used in the outside body, liner and lid of our ECOCOOL coolers, all made at our facility in the USA. 

We’re continuously growing our collection of coolers to be more sustainable through the use of different (and really awesome) innovations, like repurposing tossed-out plastic into new materials. By utilizing recycled plastic in our production, we’re significantly cutting back on greenhouse gas emissions and saving up to 88% of energy compared to utilizing virgin plastics.

100% of the hardside coolers we manufacture in the USA include THERMECOOL insulation. This innovative foam lowers CO2 and VOC emissions making it 50 times better for the planet than the law requires (compared to traditional foam insulation) while still providing advanced ice retention. With THERMECOOL, we’re lowering our environmental impact while creating coolers that can last a lifetime.

In addition to our own environmental efforts, we’re committed to supporting organizations that are effectively improving communities and public lands far and wide.

We’ve made great strides in our mission to become the most environmentally friendly cooler company on Earth, and yet we have more work to do as we move forward. Here’s a snapshot of what we’ve accomplished so far and where we’re headed.
