GreenScreen® Assessment and GreenScreen Certified™
What is GreenScreen Certified™?
GreenScreen Certified™ is a product certification created by an independent, non-profit organization that covers a range of products, including Furniture & Fabrics, Firefighting Foam, Textile Chemicals, Cleaners & Degreasers in Manufacturing, Food Service Ware, as well as Medical Supplies and Devices.
The development process for each product category’s GreenScreen Certified™ standard involves the participation of government, non-governmental organizations, and technical experts from various fields to ensure the certification standards are robust, highly precautionary, and pragmatic.
GreenScreen Certified™ allows brands and purchasers to clearly specify their preferences and requirements for products made with safer chemicals. Obtaining GreenScreen Certified™ means that the product does not contain PFAS and other high-concern chemicals. Product manufacturers can use the GreenScreen Certified™ standards to formulate and promote products that avoid the use of chemicals of high concern.
Chemicals are the foundation of products and the core of the material economy. GreenScreen Certified™ is used by governments, non-governmental organizations, and businesses in various industries and stages in the supply chain to design, manufacture, purchase, specify, and use materials and products with preferred chemicals for people and the planet.
GreenScreen® Assessment Methods
GreenScreen® assessment methods include: GreenScreen® for Safer Chemicals and GreenScreen List Translator™
GreenScreen® for Safer Chemicals
GreenScreen® for Safer Chemicals is a globally recognized chemical hazard assessment method aimed at identifying chemicals of high concern and selecting safer alternatives. Conducting a GreenScreen® assessment of a chemical includes a comprehensive review of data and information on 18 human and environmental health hazard endpoints. The chemicals are ultimately assigned a GreenScreen Benchmark™ score to indicate their overall hazard profile, ranging from Benchmark-1 “Avoid-Chemical of High Concern” to Benchmark-4 “Prefer-Safer Chemical”.
Chemical assessment reports prepared using GreenScreen® for Safer Chemicals can be used not only for GreenScreen Certified™, but also for authoritative industry certifications in various sectors such as the construction, electronics, and textile industries. GreenScreen® is widely used by governments, non-governmental organizations, and businesses in various stages of the supply chain (such as product design and development, material procurement, etc.) and as part of the assessment of alternative chemicals to meet regulatory requirements and customer demands.
GreenScreen List Translator™
GreenScreen List Translator™ is a more simplified chemical hazard screening method, based on 42 lists from authoritative scientific bodies, regulatory agencies, and non-profit organizations. It provides a wealth of information for quickly identifying known chemicals of high concern and assisting in the selection of safer chemicals.
