Fremont, Calif., March 30, 2016 – The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) today recognizes Delta Products Corporation with a 2016 ENERGY STAR® Partner of the Year – Product Brand Owner Award. In 2016, only 149 winners were chosen from a vast network of 16,000 ENERGY STAR partners. Delta receives this honor in recognition of its Breez ventilation fans, which exemplifies the company’s commitment to energy efficiency and dedication to creating sustainable and environmentally-friendly products without sacrificing performance. In honor of its outstanding contributions and efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by manufacturing energy-efficient products and educating consumers about energy efficiency, Delta will be recognized at the ENERGY STAR Awards Ceremony in Washington, D.C. on April 13, 2016.
