We’re actively recruiting qualified applicants to join our volunteer committees to help us define the core elements of safer, more sustainable products. Industry alignment on these elements is the first step toward achieving a common definition and forming a meaningful, marketable category of safer and more sustainable everyday products.
The Initiative
We’re launching a collaborative initiative with retailers, brands, and policy advocates to develop a market-led health and environmental product rating based on the core elements of a green product: safer chemicals, sustainable packaging, responsible sourcing, and low-impact manufacturing.
Research consistently shows that confusion and skepticism around sustainability claims drives a big gap between the number of shoppers who say they want eco-conscious products and the number who buy them. Developing a common framework for meaningful health and sustainability claims will build consumer trust, simplify purchasing decisions, and drive clear and consistent standards throughout the value chain.
Industry practitioners and advocates have the potential to drive significant impact for this initiative through their guidance and insight.
Call for Applicants
Apply to join our volunteer committees and help us define the core elements of safer, more sustainable products. Participants will bring both market and technical perspectives to the development of category-specific criteria and claims in:
Selected members should expect to contribute a few hours a month to activities such as attending meetings, reviewing documents, or providing feedback.
If you are interested in participating in our committees, please apply by March 19, 2025.
