Federal, State, County and
City laws are beginning to mandate that
green cleaning products are
either used exclusively (as in the case of New York State & Illinois schools) or
given heavy preference - a practice known as environmentally
preferable purchasing (EPP).
The goal is to reduce the effects of cleaning on human health and the
environment
by using products with third party green certification, such as
Green
Seal’s GS-37 standard.
The links below, downloadable in PDF format, explain Federal and local
laws that mandate the purchasing of green cleaning products.
