EPA's DfE Program Recognizes RPS Environmental for Safer Chemistry


Dallas, Texas March 4, 2010 - RPS Environmental Solutions, LP, a Dallas based manufacturer of eco-friendly cleaning products announced recognition for safer chemistry by the United States Environmental Protection Agency's Design for the Environment (DfE) partnership program.

"We are pleased that the EPA's DfE program has recognized our efforts", says Bob Hill, President of RPS Environmental Solutions, LP. "and we look forward to including more of the RPS products in the near future. This is a great step forward not just for us as a company, but for the environment as well as the health and safety of everyone that has been using conventional cleaners with dangerous or harmful ingredients."
While recognition by the Environmental Protection Agency's Design for the Environment program is obviously not a governmental endorsement, the products have been recognized for safer chemistry. The formulations of the qualifying products show that RPS Environmental Solutions, LP keeps the environment, human health, and worker safety strongly in mind during the research and development phase.

"We are still amazed that many people pay little attention to the warning labels on conventional cleaners that they use every day", says Timothy Ross, an RPS spokesperson, "and we are now focusing efforts on educating the consumer to help them make a better choice." RPS also plans to launch a campaign that allows consumers to compare the fine print and warning labels of commonly used products.

The RPS products recognized under the DfE program are FreshWorxs: Grout Cleaner, All Purpose Outdoor Cleaner and Protectant, Indoor Hard Surface Cleaner, and Lawn Furniture Cleaner and Protector.
