This product has been CRADLE TO CRADLE CERTIFIED(cm)
The CRADLE TO CRADLE CERTIFIED(cm) Mark is a registered certification mark used under license through McDonough Braungart Design Chemistry (MBDC). MBDC is a global sustainability consulting and product certification firm. The CRADLE TO CRADLE® framework moves beyond the traditional goal of reducing the negative impacts of commerce (‘eco-efficiency'), to a new paradigm of increasing its positive impacts (‘eco-effectiveness'). At its core, Cradle to Cradle design perceives the safe and productive processes of nature's ‘biological metabolism' as a model for developing a ‘technical metabolism' flow of industrial materials. Product components can be designed for continuous recovery and reutilization as biological and technical nutrients within these metabolisms.
