Happy Earth Day

Happy Earth Day! 🌎 Did you know today marks the 50th anniversary of Earth Day? And approximately the 4.5 billionth anniversary of the Earth...give or take.


Hero Arts is a Certified Green Business. Here are a few of the ways we reduce our business impact on Mother Earth:

• We have eliminated all toxins, chemicals and solvents from our processes over the years.

• We are a proud EPA Green Power Partner, offsetting 100% of our energy usage with sustainable power with support of local wind and solar projects through a partnership with National Clean Energy partner Arcadia Power. Hero Arts has been committed to clean power for almost two decades. Starting in May 2004 our manufacturing facility was powered by a 68-kw solar array, prior to moving in June 2019, and we have since increased our green offsets to continue to cover 100% of our power usage with renewal power.

• We have set aggressive company-wide goals to further reduce packaging, waste, and energy consumption. We ask all of our suppliers to take a Green Pledge, encouraging them to implement green policies in their own operations.

When you stamp with Hero Arts, you are stamping green. We invite you to visit this page to find even more information on our green practices.

Together, let's celebrate the Earth every day!
