Safer Choice

Rust-Oleum announced that it has once again been recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as a Safer Choice Partner of the Year. This honor reflects Rust-Oleum's ongoing commitment to developing, manufacturing and promoting cleaning products that incorporate safer chemical ingredients.

To earn the Safer Choice label, products must meet the EPA's rigorous Safer Choice Standard, which includes criteria for products containing ingredients that are safer for human health and the environment. Rust-Oleum has been a dedicated Safer Choice partner since 2012. This year's award highlights the company's achievements in several key areas:

• Increasing sales of Safer Choice-certified products

• Expanding its range of industrial cleaning products that meet Safer Choice standards

• Maintaining its marketing focus to promote safer chemistry initiatives, with the Safer Choice label prominently displayed on the front packaging of certified products and product webpages

"We take pride in advancing the Safer Choice program's mission by developing products that are not only effective but also promote a safer, healthier environment," says Bob McNulty, R&D director for Cleaners division at Rust-Oleum. "Our partnership with the EPA's Safer Choice program underscores our dedication to improving the sustainability and safety in our product offerings."
