March 16, 2009—A broad selection of Georgia-Pacific Professional’s tissue, towel and napkin products have gained certification from EcoLogo, the North American multi-attribute environmental leadership standard and certification mark.
To be awarded EcoLogo certification, Georgia-Pacific Professional had to meet stringent criteria addressing environmental issues such as recycled content, energy consumption, aquatic toxicity, emissions, and waste. The standard is based on a multi-attribute lifecycle approach.
The EcoLogo Program is designed to support a continuing effort to improve environmental quality by reducing energy consumption and by minimizing the impacts of pollution generated by the production, use, and disposal of goods and services. EcoLogo certification provides scientific credibility and proof of environmental leadership.
