Environmentally Preferable Products Standard Presented To : NSF Nonfood Compounds Steering Committee September 25, 2002

Background Executive Order 13101, Greening the Government Through Waste Prevention, Recycling, and Federal Acquisition (1998). EPA to develop guidance for governmental purchasing of products and services. NSF received grant to evaluate potential for development of voluntary consensus standards.

What is EPP? –Products that have a lesser or reduced effect on human health and the environment when compared with competing products that serve the same purpose. The product comparison may consider research and development, raw materials acquisition, production, manufacturing, packaging, distribution, reuse, operation, maintenance, or disposal. (EO 13101, Section 201)

NSF’s Role NSF discussed concept with several industry sectors to determine interest in development of standard. Chemical cleaner and sanitizer industry showed most interest in pursuing project. Focus on hard surface cleaners to develop “template” standard. Joint Committee formed in 2002 to begin development of standard.

Scope of Standard Combination of product standard and management system standard. Specifies requirements for Product Development Process – Environmental Management System (PDP-EMS). Standard does not “state specific environmental performance criteria…”

Areas Covered Environmental policy Procedures to identify environmental aspects during product development. Environmental objectives and targets. Overall management system criteria for product development. Internal systems for document control, records, and audits.
