UL is Expanding Its Safety Mission.
There is a growing need to better understand human health and environmental risks associated
with exposure to chemicals used in products. It’s a complex challenge, but in assuring safe living
and working environments, UL is taking leadership steps toward safety convergence. This mission
addresses human health and environmental concerns without compromising established fire,
electrical, and casualty performance of products.
→ Open summits on topics like Furniture Flammability / Human Health / Chemicals of Concern
→ Scientific research on emerging issues and technologies for knowledge and new insights
→ Stakeholder engagement through education, scientific communication, and dialogue

Problem

furniture is dumped in landfills.
Solution

by donating them to Habitat for Humanity ReStores.
Participants will earn PIPs (Positive Impact Points).
Join SFC
to reduce landfill waste by 10 tons this year!
