Minneapolis, MN. July 15, 2013- ecoEnvelopes (www.ecoEnvelopes.com), the world's leader in innovative, eco-friendly mailing solutions is proud to announce that the Company has received a 2nd Place Award as the Most Innovative Company of the Year, for businesses up to 100 employees in the 2013 American Business AwardsSM.
ecoEnvelopes was recognized for the development of the ecoAuditTM, an ROI framework for quantifying the financial, operational and environmental benefits associated with reusable postal solutions. "ecoEnvelopes deliver tangible benefits for all stakeholders, developing a tool to quantify these benefits was an important and logical next step," said Gale Ward, President and General Manager.
The company was also recognized for the revolutionary new design of the 2-way reusable TransformerTM ecoEnvelope, which is used today by companies including Sprint. The Transformer originates as a large-format envelope and returns as a smaller one for automated remittance processing. According to Ward, "We have successfully innovated solutions that work within the existing technology infrastructure through collaboration with mailers, their technology partners and third-party providers."
