Products are considered green, or sustainable, for their reduced environmental impact due to several factors:

  • Lower emissions for improved indoor air quality (IAQ) such as GreenGuard, SCS Indoor Advantage, Green Seal, Green Label and Green Label Plus products
  • Reduced toxicity
  • Recycled content
  • Improved manufacturing processes that reduce energy consumption
  • Forest-certified wood products such as the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)
  • Prolonged product life and/or durability
