There is much confusion and marketing hype over the words “environmentally friendly” or “environmentally safe”. In fact the 2008 publication on Green Marketing by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), states that “these statements are very vague and could potentially mislead consumers into thinking that the product causes no harm to the environment in its production, usage and disposal. Few, if any products could make this claim as the reality is that almost all products have some adverse impact on the environment.”

To assist with all the jargon that comes with talking “Green” cleaning products, we have defined several key product characteristics as being environmentally significant.
