Green Process - manufacturing process considers exposure to chemicals, source of materials, energy-efficient production, recycled packaging, reusing manufacturing waste, and efficient use of energy. 2. Improved Sustainability - renewable products making use of available resources. 3. Recycled Content - products made from post-consumer materials or post-industrial byproducts. 4. Recyclable - products that can then be reused or reprocessed. 5. Low-Toxicity - toxicity lower than comparable products. 6. Biodegradable - naturally returns to the earth after exposure to
elements.
