June 2009, Toronto, ON Canada. TAB Products Co LLC, headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, announced today introduction of the tabZEROfile, Canada’s first carbon neutral file folder.  

“We are very excited to continue our growth strategy towards being an environmentally-friendly company,” said Arman Bourgoin, President of TAB Products. “We’re delighted to add the tabZEROfile carbon neutral folder to our product offering and we’re very proud to be a part of the carbon offsetting efforts. We know we have a responsibility in being aware and doing what we can to reduce our carbon footprint, and being committed to help the environment is one of our top priorities.”  

“As a result of this new folder offering, we expect the demand for our environmentally-friendly product offering to see rapid growth. Our employees have demonstrated the highest level of commitment and dedication to providing our customers with the records management industry’s leading products and services while doing what we can to reduce our environmental impact, and we look forward to continue to add to our “green” product offering," said Ross Nepean, VP-Global Marketing for TAB.
