Please be advised that UL (Underwriters Laboratories) has purchased TerraChoice’s EcoLogoM program and as a result has created the new UL Environment 175 Standard. Effective December 31, 2014, previous EcoLogo sanitary paper standards no longer exist. Kruger Products is currently working with UL to certify its previously EcoLogo-certified products to the new UL standard. Assuming Kruger is successful in gaining this new certification, you will begin to see the new UL Environment certification on Kruger’s AFH products and collateral starting in 2015.
UL Environment works to advance global sustainability, environmental health, and safety by supporting the growth and development of environmentally preferable products, services, and organizations. It helps companies achieve their sustainability goals—and help purchasers, specifiers, retailers, governments, and consumers find products they can trust. UL Environment offers environmental claim validations, multi-attribute product certifications, environmental product declarations, indoor air quality certification, product emissions testing, organizational sustainability certification, and consulting.1
