The market for household cleaners has shown a substantial increase in interest in green and non-toxic products. According to Supermarket News, the category of environmentally responsible household cleaners is performing so well that supermarket chains like “Price Chopper, Schenectady, N.Y.; Kowalski's Markets, St. Paul, Minn.; and Lakeland, Fla.-based Publix are adding more SKUs to their product mix and doubling the space they give the category.”
The final revised standard of GS-8 and the response to comments on the proposed revised standard are available on the Green Seal Web site (www.greenseal.org ).
