ACT labelling: an eco-nutrition label for lab products
We believe it should be easy to make informed purchasing decisions when looking for sustainable products. By participating in the ACT Label program, run by the nonprofit organisation My Green Lab, we can provide easy to use information about our products' environmental impact.
The virtual ACT label is like an eco-nutrition label for lab products and is designed to make comparing and choosing more sustainable products for the lab easy.
