Los Angeles, CA – Jamison Services, one of the top commercial property management firms in California, has joined a rapidly expanding list of building owners and managers with tens of millions of square feet of Class-A office space across the country that have selected Falcon Waterfree urinals. As facility managers across the globe stage head-to-head sustainability competitions, as Jamison did, to weigh options for water efficiency, hygiene, and total cost savings, Falcon Waterfree continues to win and has become the gold standard by which all urinals are measured.

Businesses and institutions such as Bank of America, Cisco, Century Plaza Towers, Adobe, Watt Plaza and now Jamison have adopted the patented technology of Falcon Waterfree urinals to deliver triple bottom line results: the water conservation and cost reduction contribute to environmental and cost reduction objectives, while superior hygiene and odor-free operation of Falcon Waterfree urinals contribute to healthier work environments.

“For the past 3 years, we’ve investigated all options for retrofitting our existing urinals, from 1/8 gallon flushing urinals to all available brands of non-water urinals,” explained Jeff Jorgenson, Chief Engineer at Jamison Services. “For our 35 buildings in the greater LA area, totaling over 5 million square feet and over 400 existing urinals, we are satisfied with our selection of Falcon. Not only for the tens of millions of gallons of water saved each year, but because they perform as promised. This includes lowest operating costs, elimination of plumbing emergencies, and odor-free operation.”

Acceptance by building tenants was also a key factor, according to Jorgenson. With tenants that include medical, law, government, and other business professionals, Jamison found acceptance of waterfree urinals to be quick and positive.

More than 180,000 Falcon Waterfree urinals have been installed to date, saving an estimated 7.2 billion gallons of fresh water and 64,800 tons of CO2 emissions per year, savings that have dramatically increased due to wide-spread urinal retrofits such as those in California commercial office buildings managed by Jamison.

Los Angeles, CA – As restroom traffic kicks into overdrive during championship bowl games, water departments may find themselves waiting for a halftime surge that will never happen. The legendary halftime flush has been silenced at The Rose Bowl Stadium and Land Shark Stadium (host of Super Bowl XLIV), by hundreds of ‘conservation bowls,’ otherwise known as waterfree urinals.

The Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena will host the 96th Rose Bowl Game on January 1 and the BCS National Championship on January 7, and not a single urinal will flush,thanks to the fact that all the state-of-the-art urinals operate without requiring any water. According to Jess Waiters, Chief Operations Office of The Rose Bowl Stadium, the Falcon Waterfree urinals were installed eight years ago in response to drought conditions that have not yet relented. “The waterfree urinals save hundreds of thousands of gallons of water and we prefer that water be used for better causes in our very dry community.”

Super Bowl XLIV returns to Miami on February 7, and while the name of the stadium has changed to Land Shark Stadium, the 220 Falcon Waterfree urinals will take on their second Super Bowl. To put the water savings into perspective, a keg of beer contains 15 gallons and the water savings resulting from waterfree urinals at these three upcoming bowl games alone is enough to fill 13,120 kegs. If stacked, the kegs would reach 20-times higher than the Empire State Building.

Saving water is only one of the benefits of waterfree urinals, according to Waiters. The waterfree urinals operate without any mechanical components, which means that repairing leaking valves is a thing of the past. Without water there are no flush plumes, resulting in more hygienic restrooms. By saving a lot of water and scoring extra points with fans and maintenance crews, Falcon Waterfree urinals have earned the nickname of “Urinal of Champions.” Other major sports venues that utilize the waterfree, odor free, maintenance free urinals include Los Angeles Dodger Stadium, Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Staples Center in Los Angeles, and the “Big House” at the University of Michigan.

Los Angeles, CA – The U.S. Department of Commerce announced that Falcon Waterfree Technologies, the leading global supplier of waterfree urinals, has received the President’s “E” Award for Export Growth. U.S. Commerce Secretary Gary Locke presented Falcon CEO James Krug and President Phillip Hermann with the award today in Washington, DC.

“Exporting U.S. manufactured goods and services plays an important role in rebuilding the American economy and creating jobs at home,” explained Secretary Locke, while congratulating Falcon. “With 95 percent of the world’s consumers living outside our borders, there is great potential to boost economic growth and to create new jobs in America through exporting.”

“Protection of water resources is a global issue, which is why as part of our trailblazing effort we’ve built an exceptionally effective worldwide distribution network with strategic trade partnerships,” Krug said. “Through our global network, we are quickly delivering water conservation technology around the world to protect one of our most precious resources: fresh water.”

The President’s “E” Award recognizes Falcon for consecutive years of significant export revenue growth plus a successful marketing strategy for export growth and entering new markets. Falcon conducts business on every continent, with offices and affiliates in over 45 nations.

The rapidly growing list of prestigious international facilities with Falcon Waterfree urinals includes the Taj Mahal, Nankai Railway System in Japan, Siemens in Beijing and Columbia, Dubai International Airport, the new China Pavilion at the World Expo, and McDonald’s throughout the Philippines. Falcon has also experienced significant domestic growth with installations at the world’s first LEED Platinum skyscraper at One Bryant Park in New York City, Hollywood Bowl, Century Plaza Towers in Century City, and many more.

The export growth of Falcon Waterfree goes hand-in-hand with environmental achievements, saving more than 16 billion gallons of fresh water and reducing water supply related energy and greenhouse gas emissions.

Less than one percent of the 54 million urinals in the world are waterfree, which presents enormous opportunity for waterfree urinal retrofits and water savings. Falcon estimates that water-flushing urinals waste approximately 2.2 trillion gallons of freshwater each year. Calculations based on Pacific Institute data show that the energy required to transport and treat this amount of water generates 19.4 million tons of CO2 greenhouse gas. The patented technology in Falcon Waterfree urinals require no water and eliminate energy associated greenhouse emissions.

About The President’s “E” Award
During World War II, more than 4,000 “E Pennants” were presented to war plants in recognition of production excellence. The famous flag with the big “E” emblazoned on it became a badge of patriotism in action. President Kennedy revived the World War II “E” symbol of excellence to honor and provide recognition to America’s exporters. Thus, the “E” Award Program was established by a Presidential Executive Order in 1961 to recognize persons, firms, or organizations which contribute significantly in the effort to increase United States exports
