Choose from any of the following 4 items:
Contract language, specifications, and policies created and used by federal, state, and local governments and others to buy environmentally preferable products and services.
Environmental standards and guidelines for the product you want to buy.
Other useful sources of information on the environmental preferability of products and services (e.g., EPP Updates, guidance documents, fact sheets, EPP case studies, and miscellaneous information useful to government purchasers).
All product brand lists. These lists are compiled by other organizations and include products containing recycled-content, biobased materials, etc., as well as fuel-efficient and alternative fuel vehicles. PLEASE NOTE: Linking to these lists does not constitute "endorsement" of these products or companies on the part of EPA's Environmentally Preferable Purchasing Program. Some lists include product brands that have had their environmental claims certified by a third-party certifier, while others do not. Go to the vendor list author home page link to get more details on how each program generates its list. In addition, to get a product brand added to any vendor list in this database, please contact the organization that authored the vendor list directly via the contact information provided in the vendor list table.
Product brand lists for federal purchasers:
- Mandatory purchase items for federal purchasers compiled by EPA. These include products designated under the Energy Star, CPG, biobased product, Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP), EPEAT, and WaterSense programs. These lists can help federal agencies meet the requirements of E.O. 13423 and FAR Part 23, and include energy-efficient and recycled-content products, as well as fuel-efficient and alternative fuel vehicles. The items identified as ENERGY STAR or FEMP-designated energy efficient products and items under the CPG program MUST be purchased in accordance with FAR Part 23.
- Products compiled by other organizations. These lists can help federal agencies meet the requirements of E.O. 13423, FAR Part 23, and other federal mandates, and include products containing recycled content, etc., as well as fuel-efficient and alternative fuel vehicles. While not all of the items listed in this section are subject to federal purchase mandates or FAR Part 23, they are available with environmentally preferable attributes and should be given preferential consideration in every procurement opportunity.
