New USDA launches certified biobased product label

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s BioPreferred program launched a new USDA Certified Biobased Product Label this year to better inform consumers’ purchasing decisions and help manufacturers-including those in the cleaning industry-market biobased products. Currently, over 25 percent of labeled products are cleaning-related products.

To educate cleaning industry leaders and experts on the new label, USDA BioPreferred Program Manager Ron Buckhalt led an ISSA-TV LIVE presentation at the ISSA/Interclean North America show in October.
