Environmental Safety

Genuine Innovations CO₂ cartridges are safe and environmentally friendly.

What is CO₂?

Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) is a pure and natural gas that is a major component of the Earth’s atmosphere. CO₂ is fundamental to the basic life cycle in nature. Humans and animals exhale CO₂ and then plants absorb it to help them grow. Plants, in turn, release oxygen, which humans and animals depend on for survival.

Is CO₂ Safe for the Environment? YES!

• It’s as safe as opening a soda bottle. A 12 gram CO₂ cylinder has the same amount of CO₂ found in a one liter bottle of soda.

Is CO₂ Safe to Use? YES!

• Consumer products such as beverage carbonation, fire extinguishers, life jackets, soda siphons, and tire inflators have used CO₂ safely for many years.
• Genuine Innovations’ CO₂ cylinders are tested to ensure safety.

Can I recycle CO₂ Cylinders? YES!

• Genuine Innovations’ CO₂ cylinders are made of steel and are 100% recyclable.
• Empty CO₂ cylinders can be placed in any recycling bin that accepts metal.
• Genuine Innovations’ CO₂ cylinders contain about the same amount of metal as found in a soup can.
