To ensure that ISSA members have the most recent information, the association updated its Guide to Green Cleaning Product Procurement Policies, Initiatives, and Requirements in the United States.

The ISSA Guide to Green Procurement Policies is a comprehensive resource that summarizes the state, local, and federal government programs and policies that require or encourage the procurement and implementation of green cleaning products and services.

ISSA updated the Guide to include the latest information on:

  • The USDA Bio-based Procurement Program, which recently issued guidelines for the designation of bio-based cleaning products
     
  • The EPA Design for the Environment Safer Detergents Stewardship Initiative (SDSI) that recently recognized more than 30 ISSA member companies for their environmental stewardship
     
  • Missouri’s green cleaning for schools guidelines and specifications that are presently being developed
     
  • Maine’s implementation of its green cleaning guidelines for schools.
