Whirlpool

As part of its ongoing commitment to the development of energy-and water-efficient homes, Whirlpool Corporation contributed its KitchenAid, Maytag and Whirlpool brand appliances to five university teams competing in the 2007 Solar Decathlon. Whirlpool sponsored the following colleges and universities: Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, University of Colorado at Boulder, Carnegie Mellon University and University of Cincinnati.

For more than 30 years, Whirlpool Corporation has been committed to effectively utilizing and preserving natural resources. In 1970, the company created a corporate office for environmental control; and in 2003, the company became the world’s first appliance manufacturer to announce a greenhouse gas reduction strategy. The company manufactures more ENERGY STAR® qualified home appliances than any other appliance manufacturer.
