Are Heatsheets environmentally safe?
• Our printing partner holds an EPR Certification (Environmentally Preferred Rating). Heatsheets are printed in California, where state law (AB 455) prohibits the use of heavy metals in inks or materials. Most of the inks used are water based (as opposed to solvents), minimizing air pollution. During film extrusion and the printing process, scrap and waste are recycled whenever possible. • Heatsheets are produced from FDA food-grade LDPE-4 resin. Can I reuse my Heatsheets blanket? Yes! We encourage you to be environmentally conscious and save/reuse your Heatsheets blanket. If you aren’t saving it as a souvenir, it can be placed in your car and used in case you are stranded in bad/cold weather. You can fold it up and take it in your backpack while hiking or stash it in your coat pocket while skiing. Please consider the environment before throwing away your Heatsheet. Why do athletes risk hypothermia? Athletes participating in long distance events tend to wear just shorts and a shirt. Th
