ACT-Labeled Products
The ACT Environmental Impact Factor Label provides third-party verified information about a laboratory product's environmental impact across its lifecycle. From manufacturing and packaging to energy use and end-of-life considerations, ACT Labels help laboratories compare products using standardized sustainability metrics rather than marketing claims.
Whether you're working toward institutional sustainability goals or simply looking to make more informed purchasing decisions, ACT-labeled products offer an easy way to evaluate environmental performance alongside scientific quality.
