USDA Certified BIOBASED
Product |
 |
The USDA BioPreferred vision is
to promote the increased purchase and use of biobased products that: 1)
Provide opportunities to boost domestic demand for renewable commodities. 2)
Creates Jobs. 3) Creates investment income. The certification assures a
consumer that a product or package contains a verified amount of renewable
biological ingredients. Consumers can trust the label to mean what it says
because manufacturer's claims concerning the presence and the amount of
biobased ingredients are third-party certified and strictly monitored by
USDA. |
|
BioPreferred program includes a
preferred procurement program for Federal agencies and their contractors,
and a voluntary labeling program for the broad scale consumer. Under
the program, federal agencies and their contractors are then required to
give preferential consideration to these designated product categories when
making purchases. |
