MOST EFFECTIVE, PATENTED CAT LITTER THAT SAVES NATURE - PURR-fect HARMONY -
PURR-fect Harmony is Good for the earth, Good for the People, and Loved by Cats who prefer sandy, odor free litter
NATURE DAMAGING CLAY AND BENTONITE REPLACED BY ACTIVATED CARBON AND NATURAL CLUMPING AGENT WE CONSUME EVERY DAY
Please see my company Terfa Litter Corporation (terfalitter.ca). I own IP of the product. The product was successfully sold in the market in US in pilot production scale in 2013-2014 with funding from private investor for manufacturing.
What is needed to bring the product to retailer market
I look for 60,000 US Dollars to cover manufacturing and legal costs to bring the product to retailers in US, Canada and elsewhere. he product will be introduced to pet stores, convenience stores and gas stations and soon to big box stores. US market is close to 4 Billion dollars, solid and unified.
My product PURR-fect HARMONY is strongly patented & trademarked. It will replace clay-based and bentonite products that have 90% or market worldwide.
SUMMARY OF PRODUCT
The product represents new disruptive litter manufacturing technology made of activated carbon
Carbon is obtained from landfill sites for manufacturing: no strip-mining as required with clay.
Almost 150 Million Tons of fly ash go to landfill sites in US only every year: my product will reuse/reduce/recycle landfills
Used as effective fertilizer after cat use: no transportation to landfill needed, which saves Tens of Millions in transportation costs every year, which will be endorsed by many societies, communities and government organizations (as it already has received)
PURR-fect Harmony has all the benefits of clay litter but at lower dust, light weight, better absorbency, low raw material and manufacturing costs, naturally anti-bacterial, highly odor controlled, emission free, safe and effective eco-friendly technology made from over 85% recycled materials. Production will reduce landfill and not only that the product is an activated carbon that can be used as a fertilizer after cat use in garden, flowers, plants and trees. In other words it is not going to landfill as clay and bentonite litters do: Five Billion Pounds of clay go to landfill every year in US only and never decompose. My product received endorsements and Green America Certification already.
Five Billion Pounds of clay go to landfill every year in US only. My product is eco-friendly (Received EPA endorsement and Green America Certification already), reduces landfills, and used as a fertilizer for plants after use unlike any other products in the market that go to landfill and never decompose
Product is patented till 2030.
Your contribution to this project will reduce fly ash landfills and in addition reduce strip-mining and landfills of nature harming substances, clay and bentonite, worldwide. My product has a sodium alginate as clumping agent as part of the patents, a compound we all use daily in food every day.
Feedback from pet stores and cat owners received has been magnificent :
Store Manager at Kibbles & Cuts and Sales at Kibbles & Cuts Stansbury Park
Oh my gosh that would be amazing if we got that back on the market. I manage a dog and cat specialty shop. I had used everything on the market as far as ethically produced products go but my cats never liked the feel of the corn based litters and would not use the litter box. When we brought on purrfect harmony the fact that is was made from recycled material and was helping the environment but still had the clay feel to it is what made me decide to try it. Within the first week of using it all my litter box issues went away and my cats loved it. The odor control was impressive, the clumping was amazing. My customers loved the product so much I had a hard time keeping it in stock. My best wishes to you, I can't wait for it to come back out.
Cat owner and user of PURR-fect HARMONY, Sandpoint, Idaho
Yes, I did use the product and really enjoyed it. The cat litter was by far the best I have used.
Healthy Pets Mountain West, Cottonwood Heights
Yes we sold the litter in our store, it was a big seller in fact we had customers asking for it long after we were not able to get it anymore.
Rockstar Pets, USA
We did very well with PURR-fect Harmony litter, I really hope you can bring it back. That was a while ago, so I'm not sure what I can do for customer testimonial, but nearly all of my employees used it and we bought a lot out of the remaining stock when it folded.
Risks & Challenges
My product has already been in the market and pet store owners, cat owners and cats loved it (see terfalitter.ca). PURR-fect HARMONY is Clean and Green. Good for the earth, good for the people; loved by cats, who prefer sandy, odor free litter.
It saves the nature, Billions of pounds of flyash landfills are
reused and reduced unlike clay mining that generates huge craters in
nature and products go back to separate landfills after use creating
massive landfill mountains and never decompose, my product is nature
preserving at both ends as it is used as fertilizer for gardens after
cat use. Waste transportation costs of heavy clay in garbage are
avoided. It already received Green America Certification.
Superiority of my product ensures strong positioning in markets.
