Eco-Productsannounced today that it has earned a GreenScreen Certified Silver designation for its Vanguard line of compostable plates and containers made from sugarcane. The line uses a proprietary chemistry to achieve grease resistance without the use of PFAS, a class of materials sometimes referred to as “forever chemicals.” In addition, GreenScreen Certified products do not contain other chemicals of high concern or known regrettable substitutes.
Regrettable substitution occurs when one ingredient is removed only to be replaced by another that could also be problematic. GreenScreen Certified Silver means that every chemical used in the Vanguard formulation was examined and does not have known chemicals of high concern to human health and the environment.
