The hot water running down your face and body is so relaxing, and being able to wash the worries (and liter- al dirt) of life away is insurmountable. The problem is when, instead of disap- pearing down the drain, those worries pool up at our feet instead because our drain is so clogged up with hair! Clogged drains are not only gross, but they can end up being expensive. The second you need to call a plumber, you know you messed up – and we've certainly been there before. So, yes, you may face a myriad of challenges each and every day. Thankfully, cleaning clogged drains no longer has to be one of them, thanks to the TubShroom Ultra Stainless Steel edi- tion. TubShroom Ultra is a stainless steel bathtub hair stopper that fits snug inside your shower tub drain, effortlessly gath- ering each and every hair that tries to make its way down your vulnerable drain. It's the hero you deserve in your bathroom. If your shower or tub drain is con- stantly clogged, the culprit is most likely hair. Prevent backups and slow drains with the all new award-winning TubShroom Ultra hair catcher and drain protec- tor. The clever catcher simply inserts into the drain opening. As you shower, the unique design wraps hair around the cylinder – out of view – while letting water flow freely. To clean, just lift out and remove the hair. It catches both human and animal hair, making it ideal for pet owners. It fits inside standard 1.5 to 2.0 inch tub drains. No special installation is needed and the package comes with extra adapters for smaller (1.25-inch) and larger (2-inch) drains. The TubShroom is a Kitchen & Bath Business Product Innovator Award Winner and has received an honorable mention in TIME Magazine's 2018 Best Inventions list. To date, more than five mil- lion drains are protected by the TubShroom family of products around the world. That means fewer clogs and fewer hassles. With TubShroom, pricey plumber visits are a thing of the past and harmful liquid drain cleaners become unnecessary. That's a win for your wallet and for the environment.

GEFU Focuses on Sustainability Founded in 1943, Gebrüder Funke KG (GEFU) has been a specialist in slicers, graters, peelers, choppers, presses, and of course, the classic product: the FLOTTE LOTTE ® food mill, which has been pro- duced virtually unaltered over the past 75-plus years. From the beginning, craftsmanship was combined with the idea of making life easier for the home cook. GEFU is still pursuing this goal – but in a more diverse form with a great many more products. Among the new products being introduced this year are many new "green products" with the goal of sustainability. One of the excep- tional examples of this effort is the Conscio Coffee Capsules. These stain- less-steel containers are made to be used indefinitely and should be included as part of your coffee making routine. Only one in every five single use coffee cap- sules is recycled. Their use would be a small contribution towards protecting the increasingly cluttered oceans (and other waterways) by avoiding needless- ly wasting plastic and saving on alu- minum. At the same time, you would be able to continue trying out new coffee varieties and experiment with your own mixes. One new inventive, sustainability product is the BEESWAYS beeswax wraps. They are a clever environmentally friendly alternative to kitchen foil and cling wraps, easy to clean and long lasting. Among possi- ble uses: covering, packag- ing or freezing food. It is flexible and fits all shapes and sizes of food and containers. The wraps can be used for up to two years. Wipe clean with cold water and allow to air dry. They are made of cotton, beeswax, jojoba and tree resin. GEFUs popular glass straws are another area focused on sustainability. They can come with a handy carrying case and come in multiple colors and include a cleaning brush. The area of pack- aging and shipping has also seen some signifi- cant eco-friendly changes. GEFU has become nearly plastic free in this area. There are no polybags around inner cartons since the beginning of 2019. GEFU has not used air-cushion pil- lows in cartons since December 2019. One of the few exceptions is in the deliv- ery of unpacked products (for example, PRIMELINE and blisters). For more information, go to www.gefu.com or stop by booth #N7908. Judge Casey's Chunky-Style Ketchup In October of last year, Judge Casey's introduced the latest version of its Irish Relish, Judge Casey's Irish Country Ketchup. The all-natural country-style ketchup combines crushed tomatoes, onions, raisins, and a tangy blend of sun- dried tomatoes, vinegar and spices. The result is a chunky gourmet ketchup that is both sweet and savory, making it a tasty pairing for meats, eggs and cheeses and a great marinade for barbecue, kebabs, steak and pork cutlets. Additionally, because it is both chunky and pourable, it can be used as a dipping sauce for fries and other potato products. Irish Country Ketchup is vegan, gluten free, GMO free, and contains no artificial colors or preservatives and is high-fructose corn syrup-free. It is avail- able in 14.5-ounce glass bottles. Based in the San Francisco, California, area, Judge Casey's was founded in 2013 by college friends and Irishmen Peadar Casey and Stephen Bray; the company is named after Casey's Irish-immigrant great uncle, Judge Jeremiah Casey, who immigrated to the San Francisco Bay area in 1873, and, as family legend has it, later became a famous and respected judge.
