From Grandfather To Grandson, Wild Republic Stays True To Its Promise To "Protect The Planet"

TWINSBURG, Ohio, April 9, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- As a company committed to nature and conservation, Wild Republic proactively strives to be as environmentally friendly and ethically responsible as possible. To further this forty-year commitment, Wild Republic announced their renewed corporate social responsibility strategy, promising to lessen their carbon footprint by reducing, reusing and sourcing sustainable products. This "Promise to the Planet" includes less chemicals, recycled plastic beans in their plush, 80% recycled cardboard, the elimination of single-use plastic and more.

"My grandson and I exist to protect humans and animals," says G.B. Pillai, Founder of Wild Republic. "Our projects focus on enhancing the quality of life for humans, creation of environmentally conscious products and fostering partnerships with foundations dedicated to preserving the earth's most precious treasure, the animals. The animals inspire our product portfolio and animal education drives the curiosity needed to change the world."

What begun under the vision and guidance of G.B. Pillai to create an environmentally friendly and ethically responsible toy and plush lines continues with his grandson and now President of Wild Republic, Vishunu Chandran. 

Mr. Chandran adds, "It is our mission to positively impact the lives of children on this planet by inspiring curiosity and wildlife education. We are equally committed to nature and conservation. Regrind plastic beans, recycled cardboard, soy ink, and the elimination of single use plastics are examples of how we will deliver on our promise to protect our planet. We are dedicated to finding new ways to reduce non-biodegradable materials and leverage post-consumer materials in our products and packaging for years to come."

Wild Republic was established forty years ago to support Mr. Pillai's love for children and wildlife, a promise the company has successfully delivered on for four decades. Its diverse and creatively-designed product line of toys and stuffed animal's fosters curiosity about wildlife and educates children about the wonders of nature. Today, the company continues to convert its production processes to include reusable packaging, phthalate-free non-toxic materials, and sustainable resources.

Throughout time, the company's mission is unchanged and remains dedicated to fostering curiosity about wildlife and educating children about the wonders of nature in order to preserve it for future generations to come.
