ERC Group Unveils New Certification Logomark

Feb. 22, 2012 - PRLog -- February 6, 2012 – Montville, NJ – Dr. Walter Guarino, president of ERC Group, has publicly revealed the new unique ERC icon to identify “ethnic and religiously compliant” plastic food service products such as packaging, utensils and containers.  “This symbol will soon become the world standard and brand certification as part of the global Purity in Plastics movement,” said Guarino.  Currently, there are standards to certify food and food ingredients, but none for the plastics used in packaging those foods.
ERC Group is a Premier Group Ltd., Inc., company.  Premier Group’s marketing research indicates that many of the most highly-respected religious authorities (Hebrew and Islamic, for example) as well as other segments that purchase with dietary consciousness (Vegans, Hindus and wellness advocates) will be most apt to embrace the new ERC mark.  Together, these groups represent a large population that will readily welcome food service and food packaging products that do not contain an animal stearate or other undesirable ingredients in their composition.
The ERC certification program will inevitably cause there to be a great deal of pressure on companies to use the ERC “proof-positive”, socially-responsible mark.
In addition to licensing services, Premier Group will produce ERC-certified raw materials under the PurOlyn branded product line, as well as manufacturing high-end, ERC-certified storage containers and related products.
