Product environmental criteria have been established for a wide variety of consumer products. Please contact GC for the list of HKGLS product categories, the associated criteria, or simply download the information from this website.

It should, however, be noted that the criteria are reviewed regularly and revised when necessary to take into account any advances in environmental technology and/or changes in current environmental concerns. Any such revisions in the criteria will be promulgated by GC.
