The SC Johnson Greenlist™ Program is a Peer Reviewed Program: An Excerpt from Our 2017 Sustainability Report

Prior to the release of this report we shared details of the SC Johnson Greenlist™ program with leading experts in human and environmental toxicology for their independent review. 

Their feedback validated the Greenlist™ program, the underlying criteria and data we use, and our science-based approach to selecting ingredients that takes into account both hazard and risk.
