Metro Paws® Removes Plastic From Their Bags

For immediate release:

Metro Paws hears you Mother Nature, which is why they’re asking everyone to get that plastic off their shelves with their reformulated Poopy Packs, poop bags that degrade 25% within a month. Poopy Packs have now taken over the market as some of the most degradable bags while still remaining the most stylish.

Following Metro Paws’ mission to be both innovative and as eco-friendly as possible, the company created Poopy Packs to give pawrents top-tier degradable poop bags in bright patterns. Now, just in time for Earth Day, they have been updated for the better. As of Spring 2022, Poopy Packs are made with an innovative additive and poly mix that controls the lifespan of plastics and allows a natural biodegradation process both in and out of landfills, meaning up to 25% biodegradation within one month. Lab tests have awarded them an ASTM 5511 certification, a credential very few bags have. You can check the packaging of competitors to see their certification...or lack thereof.

The new and improved Poopy Packs give eco-conscious stores and customers an ingenious poop bag without sacrificing the quality and vibrant designs they’ve come to expect from Metro Paws. Plus, Poopy Packs feature 20 bags per roll versus competitors’ 15 bags per roll, giving customers more bang for their buck. For more information regarding Poopy Packs and to place an order, contact sales@metropaws.com. Be sure to ask about other eco-friendly Metro Paws products for your store.

Love and Licks® T-Shirts

The Love and Licks® T-Shirts are made of super soft, ring-spun cotton and come in two styles. The URBAN shirt features the Love and Licks® logo with distressed rescue-themed words such as “rescue”, “adopt” and “love” to help promote rescue. The METRO shirt goes for a more chic, simple look featuring only the Love and Licks® logo. They are available in both men's and women's sizes with proceeds going to Low-Kill shelters nationwide.

Notable contributions include yearly donations to the Michaelson Found Animals Saving Pets Challenge along with monetary and in-kind donations to Barks of Love Foundation, The Labelle Foundation, The Little Red Dog, Paws Up Pet Rescue, Shorty's Rescue, and Adopt and Shop.

“We just felt like we needed to do more in our industry. We’ve already donated time, product, and money to many charities, but there is always room for more. What better way is there than to make products for the cause, so people receive something in return for giving? At our office, strays are always walking up to our door, and we never say no. We want to raise awareness to this neverending problem, and help save lives in any way we possibly can.” -Megan Miquelon Bolton, Founder/Chief Creative Officer of Metro Paws and Love and Licks® Foundation

Quotables

“As dog owners ourselves, we know how hard it can be to clean up a pup with a towel or wet cloth; the way dogs manage to get dirt in all their crevices, water alone leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to getting a dog’s fur ick-free. With cleansing ingredients, these wipes are a great way to rid your dog of grime and mess!”

~Modern Dog Magazine

"Playtime just got a whole lot more fun with Metro Balls Metro Balls are safer for pets than standard tennis balls, thanks to zero petrochemicals and materials including yarn and natural rubber. They’re also available in five color options."

~American Pet Products Association

"Pet waste bags don’t have to stink, thanks to these colorful and biodegradable bags, in a variety of package sizes and designs, including XL bags and cat litter liners."

~ Catster Magazine

"While at the dog park or on hikes does your dog like to get muddy and dirty? These boys love to get dirty but have the happiest time while playing. So we use [Metro Wipes] before they get in the car so they're clean! They have the 25 pet wipe count that is travel size packaging so they are a perfect fit for adventures and traveling. [They] are the largest and thickest on the market [and] are unscented, so they are great for sensitive dogs "
