GeezerDuvet CC takes corporate social responsibility seriously. It is our intention to benefit South Africa, the broader community and small businesses wherever possible.

• The vast majority of materials used in the production of GeezerDuvet geyser blankets are recycled.
• All materials used in the production of the GeezerDuvet are manufactured in South Africa.
• Installing the GeezerDuvet cuts the electricity required by a household. This means less electricity needs to be produced, so less coal needs to be burned, which in turn means the air quality will improve near power stations.
• Taken to its logical conclusion, if everyone fitted a GeezerDuvet in South Africa, Eskom would not need to be considering how to immediately increase or free up capacity, and the building of new power stations could be delayed by many years.

Choice of insulation material:

We have chosen (in our opinion) the best insulation material currently available in the South African market. It is non-toxic, maintenance free, contains no fibreglass and is people and environmentally friendly. It retains its thickness and complies with C.S.I.R. building technology fire propagation requirements.

Choice of manufacturer:

• We have chosen to use sheltered employment groups like the Cerebral Palsy Association's Village Work Centre and the Oasis Association based in Cape Town to assist in the manufacture of our products.
• The Oasis Association was established by parents of people with intellectual disabilities in 1952 to provide services for this vulnerable group of men, women and children. Their mission is to enable persons with intellectual disabilities to realise their full potential and thereby become as independent and productive as possible within the community.

• While services create a nurturing, caring environment, skills are learnt and meaningful vocational and social opportunities are offered.

We support the Oasis mission and are proud partners in this project.
