News Release: 8/29/2024

CORNERSTONE CLEANING is proud to announce that two of its cleaning agents – Bona Floor Cleaner & Cleaning Vinegard - are now certified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Safer Choice program and have earned the Safer Choice label. Safer Choice is a voluntary EPA program that certifies cleaning and other products made with ingredients that are safer for people, pets and the planet. 

Finding cleaning products with safer chemical ingredients that work well should be easy. That is why Cornerstone Cleaning is partnering with EPA Safer Choice. Our participation in the EPA's Safer Choice program demonstrates our commitment to using products with ingredients that are safer for your home, workplace, and the environment. 

“Cornerstone Cleaning will be pursuing recognition by the EPA as a green cleaner.” Beth Derickson, CEO – Cornerstone Cleaning 

To carry the Safer Choice label, a product must meet the?Safer Choice Standard, which includes requirements for safer chemical ingredients, performance, ingredient disclosure, packaging, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and pH. 

The Safer Choice label is a reliable way to find products made with safer ingredients without sacrificing performance. Every ingredient in products that carry the Safer Choice label is reviewed by EPA scientists to make sure certified products only contain the safest possible ingredients for people and the planet. Safer Choice-certified products are made with ingredients that won't cause serious health problems, like cancer, and aren't harmful to fish or waterways. Safer Choice also restricts volatile organic compounds to minimize indoor air pollution and associated respiratory concerns. Products with the label also use more sustainable packaging that doesn't contain toxic chemicals, like heavy metals. 

Look for cleaning agents with the Safer Choice label when you shop.
