LITTLETON, Mass., Jan. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TÜV Rheinland, a global leader in independent technical services, formally awarded its Green Product Mark to BodyGuardz for its next generation screen protector, Pure 3, at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2022.
Pure 3 is the strongest screen protector available from BodyGuardz, which includes industry leading sustainability properties. TÜV Rheinland awarded this certification based on the unprecedented environmental care BodyGuardz takes with every aspect of the Pure 3 and Pure 3 Eyeguard, from components to production and packaging. The TÜV Rheinland Green Mark covers 5 aspects: corporate social responsibility audit, control of toxic and hazardous material, product carbon footprint calculation and verification, recycled material verification and product recycle and reuse.
“TÜV Rheinland is leading the market in developing new sustainability standards in numerous sectors. We’re happy to work with them to ensure the products we develop meet or exceed those standards,” said Kirk Feller, President and CEO of BGZ Brands, BodyGuardz’s parent company. “Customers are at the forefront of everything we do. The Green Product Mark will give them peace of mind that our products not only protect their phones but that our green initiatives are legitimate and impactful.”
TÜV Rheinland’s Green Product Mark is a voluntary, multiple-criteria-based environmental labeling certification that indicates the overall environmental sustainability of a product. The production and packaging of the Pure 3 screen protector have met the core criteria of the program.
Frank Holzmann, Global Vice President of TÜV Rheinland Business Field Electrical says, “For 150 years, TÜV Rheinland has been developing solutions to ensure the safety and quality of the interaction between man, technology, and the environment, and we remain committed to a sustainable future. We are happy to see that the program can help the industry improve their supply chain sustainability management, step-by-step, by setting higher criterias. The carbon footprint calculation will also help to create transparency and make it easier for our client to achieve the mission of carbon neutral. We are very pleased to issue our Green Product Mark to BodyGuardz, a company determined to provide consumers with products which can be used safely and that also further environmental protections.”
