American Cleaning Institute Shares Feedback with White House Panel Addressing Government Sustainable Chemistry Policy
The U.S. government is failing to meet its requirements to review new chemicals within 90 days, which has created a bottleneck for new innovative, safer, and environmentally sustainable chemicals from reaching the U.S. market and building the respective benefits to scale, according to comments submitted by American Cleaning Institute (ACI).
ACI’s views were…
The use of cleaning products, disinfectants and their chemistries contribute to public health in homes, schools, healthcare settings and communities every single day. But consumers might not understand this after reading some of the commentaries in news coverage of a review article summarizing previous research on a key chemistry used in many cleaning products and disinfectants.
The news coverage and related headlines – some of which were a bit alarmist – involved a commonly…
