GREENGUARD CERTIFICATION UL Environment's GREENGUARD Certification program helps
manufacturers create--and helps buyers identify and trust--interior products and materials that have low chemical emissions, improving the quality of the air in which the products are used. All certified products must meet stringent emissions standards based on established chemical exposure criteria.
UL Environment, a business unit of UL (Underwriters Laboratories), acquired GREENGUARD in 2011, further advancing its mission of promoting global sustainability, environmental health, and safety. GREENGUARD Certification is broadly recognized and accepted by sustainable building programs and building codes around the world. Additionally, the GREENGUARD Product Guide serves as a free online tool for finding certified low-emitting products for offices, hospitals, schools, homes, and more.

INDOOR AIR QUALITY CERTIFICATE The GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certification
Program gives assurance that products designed for use in office environments and other indoor spaces meet strict chemical emissions limits, which contribute to the creation of healthier interiors. Achieving GREENGUARD Certification gives credence to manufacturers’ sustainability claims, backing them with empirical scientific data from an unbiased, third-party organization
Products certified under this program bear the GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certified® mark

UA ACHIEVES GREENGUARD Our custodial department was already 90% in
compliance with the GREENGUARD Certification as we have been using 5 green sealed chemicals in the course of cleaning tasks that meet with the GREENGUARD low chemical emissions criteria:
Raindance Perdiem Crew Pro-Strip Enviro Care Wax
Remaining 10%
We have started using Microfiber mops and clothes which pick up and retain more dust and dirt then rags.
