Additional business information
On August 7, 2019, BBB contacted the business regarding its website advertising eco-friendly claims.
According to the BBB Code of Advertising, Environmental Benefit Claims
Advertisers should avoid broad, unqualified environmental claims such as "green" or "eco-friendly." Other claims such as "degradable," "recycled," and "non-toxic," should only be used when substantiated and properly qualified. Environmental Certifications and seals of approval may be used if properly issued. Additional disclosures are needed if not issued by an independent third-party.
- General Principles
36.1.1 Advertisers should not make broad, unqualified general environmental benefit claims like "green" or "eco-friendly."
36.1.2 Advertisers must qualify general claims with specific environmental benefits.
36.1.3 Advertisers must not possess competent and reliable evidence (often scientific evidence) to support all all environmental benefit claims. Qualifications for any claim must be clear, conspicuous and understandable.
36.1.4 When an advertiser qualifies a general claim with a specific benefit, the benefit should be significant. Advertisers must not highlight small or unimportant benefits.
36.1.5 Unless clear from the context, any environmental claim must specify clearly and conspicuously whether the claim applies to the product, the product's packaging, a service or just to a portion of the product, package or service.
Unfortunately, the business did not respond to BBB's request to remove the claims.

However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.
When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
