What is Green Seal?
Green Seal is an independent non-profit organization dedicated to safeguarding the environment and transforming the marketplace by promoting the manufacture, purchase, and use of environmentally responsible products and services.
Green Seal has been active since its inception in helping to shape policy at the national and international levels in areas of most concern to its mission - the practice and use of ecolabelling and environmental product standards; making government procurement more environmentally responsible; and coordinating among ecolabelling practitioners world-wide.
Green Seal's evaluations are based on state-of-the-art science and information using internationally recognized methods and procedures. To earn the coveted Green Seal a product must meet the Green Seal environmental standard for the category as demonstrated by rigorous evaluation, testing and a plant visit. The Green "Seal of Approval" has come to stand for reliability, fairness, and integrity.
What is Green Seal Certification?
Green Seal Certification ensures that a product meets rigorous, science-based environmental leadership standards. Each product is tested according to science-based procedures, that it works as well or better than others in its class, and that it has been evaluated without bias or conflict of interest. This gives manufacturers the assurance to back up their claims and purchasers confidence that certified products are better for human health and the environment.
