Kimberly-Clark’s (Dallas, Texas, USA) Scott Naturals brand reports that its dry bath tissue, paper towels, and napkins have earned the Green Good Housekeeping Seal, an emblem given by the Good Housekeeping Research Institute in recognition of a brand's demonstration of environmental responsibility across a wide range of criteria. K-C’s products met Good Housekeeping’s standard for paper goods based on recycled content and other factors.

"The Green Good Housekeeping Seal is widely recognized and respected among the industry and consumers alike, and we are proud to achieve this designation," said Alma Alejandro, brand manager for Scott Naturals. "With the Green Good Housekeeping Seal's limited warranty, individuals can take a small step toward a greener world by using these products."

The Scott Naturals dry bath tissue, paper towels, and napkins are made with a blend of virgin material and at least 20% recycled material in products or packaging. This unique combination delivers both quality and environmental benefits, the company says.

The Good Housekeeping Research Institute evaluates products for its Green Good Housekeeping Seal based on ingredient and product safety, reduction of water use in manufacturing, energy efficiency in manufacturing and product use, packaging reduction, and the brand's corporate social responsibility. If the products that earn this distinction prove defective within two years of purchase, Good Housekeeping will replace the item or provide a refund.
