Choose Green Report: General Purpose Cleaners
March 1998
Green Seal surveyed manufacturers of general purpose cleaners and identified products that are “environmentally responsible,” as defined by reduced impact on the environment and human health. This report flushes out what to look for when buying cleaners, including biodegradability, toxicity, specific chemical compounds, and packaging considerations. It features three pages of recommended greener cleaners, listing them as either “Green Buys” or “Honorable Mentions.” Manufacturer phone numbers are provided.
