Ecobob Website Champion's Sustainable Living And Eco-Friendly Homes
5 May 20075 Mar 2007 - www.ecobob.co.nz has become the one stop shop for sustainable living, having recently partnered with the Sustainable Business Network to become the comprehensive online directory for of eco-friendly products and services in New Zealand.
Developed by brothers Carlin & Daniel Archer the site has been designed to provide people with an eco-friendly choice when looking to build or renovate, without needing to compromise on style.
"We wanted to prove that you can have the best of both worlds - a beautiful home that is eco-friendly. With a bit of planning, sustainable environmentally friendly housing is a viable alternative to conventional less eco friendly homes" says Carlin Archer.
The website concept came about from the brothers looking to design their own eco houses and finding that good information was difficult to source.
"All the information is on the net but you had to surf a large number of different sites. By developing this site we have been able to use our skills to make it easier for other New Zealand consumers to make informed decisions".
The eco business directory enables consumers to find products and services in a wide range of 'eco categories' such as solar hot water, cloth nappies and other environmentally friendly baby items, green waste recycling systems, eco friendly builders etc.
Along with the eco business directory, the site includes profiles of eco houses, eco houses for sale in New Zealand, a range of information on sustainable living, and has a strong community focus section with discussion forums and blogs.
