PURELL® Green Certified Instant Hand Sanitizer
GOJO Launches PURELL® Green Certified Instant Hand Sanitizer
World’s First Hand Sanitizer to Achieve EcoLogo™ Certification
GOJO Industries announced the launch of its new PURELL® Green Certified Instant Hand Sanitizer, the world’s first hand sanitizer to be certified by EcoLogo™, North America’s most established multi-attribute environmental leadership standard and certification mark.
PURELL Green Certified Instant Hand Sanitizer, available in the U.S. only, is made with 100 percent naturally renewable ethanol in a readily biodegradable formula. Certification by EcoLogo, a third-party eco-labeling program, acknowledges that the product meets the program’s Instant Hand Antiseptic Products standard (CCD-170) for environmental leadership. New PURELL Green Certified Instant Hand Sanitizer also meets the USDA BioPreferred program for biobased content.
PURELL Green Certified Instant Hand Sanitizer, available in both gel and foam, kills 99.99 percent of most common germs that may cause illness, and helps condition skin with a natural moisturizer in a fragrance-free and dye-free formulation.
“PURELL Green Certified Instant Hand Sanitizer is a major milestone in the long history of GOJO product development, and a healthy decision for people, places and the environment,” said Joe Kanfer, GOJO Chairman and CEO. “As the world’s first instant hand sanitizer to receive certification from a type-1 eco-labeling program, PURELL Green represents the company’s dedication to lead the industry in improving well-being through hand hygiene and healthy skin.”
In addition to being made with naturally renewable plant-based ethanol in a readily biodegradable formula, PURELL Green further demonstrates sustainability through its GOJO SMART FLEX™ technology. The product is packaged in lightweight, recyclable PET bottles made with 30 percent less material and the same durability as standard rigid HDPE bottles. This packaging innovation helps save more than 250 tons of plastic annually.
