Notes:
When a product is Bio-based and CPG, Select CPG. Otherwise, if not exempted, bio-based shall be chosen over other attributes. On the GSA Advantage website some environmental product indicators, such as ‘Non-Toxic’ and ‘Biobased’, are specified by the product vendor and have not been independently verified. Prior to procurement, it is important to examine the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for each product in order to verify that the environmental indicators designated by the vendor are accurate.
