Good Housekeeping Magazine just released the first-ever products to earn the “Green Good Housekeeping Seal” in the appliance and paper categories, helping consumers take steps towards a greener lifestyle. Among the products earning the Green Seal include: Scott Naturals Bath Tissue, Bissell’s Little Green and Pampers Cruisers.
According to Good Housekeeping, the overwhelming clutter of “green” claims all over today’s market makes it hard for consumers to tell which products they should be choosing. That is why scientists and engineers at the Good Housekeeping Research Institute created The Green Good Housekeeping Seal – an extension of the brand’s long-trusted primary Seal— to help people make greener choices. Products are evaluated based on specific criteria including: the reduction of water use in manufacturing; packaging reduction; and the brand’s corporate social responsibility. Members of Good Housekeeping’s Environmental Advisory Board include: An Inconvenient Truth producer Laurie David, and author & TV personality (Discovery’s Planet Green), Steve Thomas.
Bissell’s Little Green, Miele’s entire S5 and S6 series, Pampers Cruisers, Scott Naturals Bath Tissue, and TENA Women Underwear Super Plus and TENA Serenity Overnight Pads, are the newest products to be awarded the prestigious Seal from Good Housekeeping Magazine.
Green Good Housekeeping Seal Expands: Eco-Friendly Products from BISSELL, Miele, Pampers, and More
Good Housekeeping is once again spotlighting brands that blend performance with planet-friendly design. Several new products have just earned the Green Good Housekeeping Seal (GGHS)—a mark that signifies both quality and sustainability. These additions show that greener choices are not only possible—they’re also practical for everyday living.
To qualify for the GGHS, each product must first pass the standard Good Housekeeping Seal evaluation. After that, the product goes through additional testing for environmental impact. This includes assessments on water use, end efficiency, packaging design, material safety, and corporate social responsibility. As a result, consumers gain trusted guidance when choosing eco-conscious goods.
Among the most recent honorees is the BISSELL Little Green Deep Cleaner. It uses recycled plastic, saves water, and still tackles tough stains. Miele’s S5 and S6 vacuums also made the list. These machines combine energy efficiency with durability, offering years of reliable service. Pampers Cruisers with Dry Max received the seal as well. While disposable, these diapers use fewer materials and generate less landfill waste. Then there’s Scott Naturals Tube-Free Bath Tissue. By eliminating the cardboard roll, it significantly reduces excess packaging. Another addition is the TENA Serenity pad. It meets standards for safety, comfort, and lower environmental impact.

This list reflects a growing shift in consumer demand. People want products that perform well but also protect the environment. The GGHS acts as a guidepost, helping shoppers identify which brands are serious about sustainability. At the same time, the seal carries Good Housekeeping’s two-year limited warranty, offering added confidence in product durability.
Because of these advancements, it’s easier than ever to live green without sacrificing convenience. High-efficiency appliances, better materials, and smarter packaging are changing the way we clean, care, and consume.
So next time you’re restocking your home essentials, look for the Green Good Housekeeping Seal. It’s more than a label—it’s a promise of progress. When quality and sustainability come together, everyone wins.
