CERTIFYING ORGANIZATIONS

Credible third party certification provides you with objective assurance that our paper and chemical products meet or exceed criteria for environmental standards. We are proud to offer products certified by EcoLogo and Green Seal, two of North America’s most widely recognized and respected certifications of environmental leadership. By setting standards and certifying products in various categories, these certifications help you identify, trust, and buy environmentally preferable (“green”) goods and services. The EcoLogo or Green Seal logo identifies a product as environmentally preferable, provides third-party corroboration of environmental claims, and distinguishes a product from competitors that can't support their environmental assertions.

EcoLogo^M is North America's most widely recognized and respected multi-attribute environmental certification mark. By certifying the environmental leaders in over 300 categories of products, EcoLogo^M helps environmental marketers win customers.

In a skeptical marketplace, EcoLogo builds the trust needed by providing scientific credibility and proof of environmental leadership. EcoLogo provides customers – public, corporate and consumer – with assurance that the products and services bearing the logo meet stringent environmental standards that have been verified by a third party auditor.

By helping environmental leaders win, EcoLogo^M helps move the entire marketplace toward sustainability.

EcoLogo^M belongs to the Government of Canada, and is a founding member of the Global EcoLabelling Network. The program is stewarded by TerraChoice Environmental Marketing.

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 service.

Green Seal's mission is to achieve a more sustainable world by promoting environmentally responsible production, purchasing, and products.

Green Seal Certification ensures that a product meets rigorous, science-based environmental leadership standards. This gives manufacturers the assurance to back up their claims and purchasers confidence that certified products are better for human health and the environment.
