What it means to be ULTRA-GREEN: |
|
| Each year millions of gallons of toxic materials are released into the environment, ultimately making their way into the earth, water, and air. Cottman ULTRA-GREEN centers recycle solvents and use water-based cleaners as alternatives to more hazardous cleaners. |
|
|
| ULTRA-GREEN Cottman centers promote measures that aid in greater fuel efficiencies in our customers' vehicles. These include: promotion of alternative fuels (E85), higher mileage oil, filters, & components, insure proper tire inflation, and offers new technologies which result in more efficient and cleaner burning vehicles. Every gallon of fuel that can be conserved translates into 2.15 gallons of crude oil saved. Some very simple conservation methods can be adopted by motorists that collectively can help save millions of gallons of energy. Cottman ULTRA-GREEN centers offer low emission alternative fuel solutions and other high-mileage energy saving services. |

|
| The disposal of used parts and waste fluids fills local landfills and may pollute our water stream. As more and more landfills are required they push closer to residential neighborhoods. Older sites that leak and those brimming with toxic waste continue to be huge environmental issues. Cottman ULTRA-GREEN centers recycle waste fluids and used filters and have taken efforts to assure that waste water from the center does not enter the sewer system. |

| Automotive shops use utilities, fuel, and other natural resources to run their businesses. Those resources can be conserved through energy efficiency methods. Cottman ULTRA-GREEN centers have committed to instituting low energy solutions, solid waste recycling and buying recycled products. |

| Visit our section on the new EPA-certified E85 conversion program, ready NOW for fleet owners and operators. There are numerous benefits to converting your fleet to E85 fuel including supporting our domestic farmers and decreasing our dependence on foreign oil, many states offer substantial tax breaks to operators who convert their fleet to alternative fuels, and E85 (105 octane) is already on average 17% cheaper than traditional 87-octane gasoline. Cottman-installed Flex Conversion kits can pay for themselves in as little as seven months. |
