Submitted by Tulong LLC

Tulong LLC is thrilled and proud to announce it has been awarded the Green America Business Seal of Approval. The seal is presented to businesses that go beyond product and service quality to set the highest standards in environmental sustainability and social justice, and work to solve, rather than create, environmental and social problems.

To be considered for the Seal of Approval and earn a listing in the annual National Green Pages™, businesses complete a rigorous screening process to ensure they meet Green America's standards for the environment, community and labor.

Tulong LLC designs and manufactures casual, active and lifestyle apparel for men, women, and children as well as fashion apparel for women, all manufactured from 100% recycled fiber. Tulong markets its products under the Repair the World®, Reparel™, Sloungewear™ and Slogawear™ brands. All products are made in socially compliant facilities and the company gives back to communities in need through re-investment in infrastructural development.

"We are very pleased to earn this coveted Green Business Seal of Approval," said Mark Heiman, co- founder and President of Tulong. "It's one of the most respected and recognized symbols in the green marketplace. It is especially rewarding for us as a young company to see that our strong efforts in building a sustainable business based on a triple bottom line philosophy is recognized."

Tulong LLC is now an approved member of the Green Business Network, a distinguished and celebrated group of companies that use their products and services as a vehicle for social and environmental change.
