BOULDER, Colo. — Eco-Products announced today that it has become a Certified B Corporation,
earning the coveted distinction for meeting “the highest standards of social and
environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability.”

In addition, Eco-Products, the leading brand of [food service](https://greenlivingguy.com/2014/07/green-seal-launches-new-national-sustainability-standard-for-restaurants-and-food-services-in-chicago/)
packaging made with renewable resources and recycled content. It’s joining a growing
community of B Corp companies working to solve environmental and social problems.
These companies are not competing just to be the best in the world. They are the
best for the world.

B Corporations – the “B” stands for “Benefit”. For they are companies certified 
by the nonprofit B Lab; thereby working toward a better world.

So unlike traditional corporations, Certified B Corporations agree to consider the
impact of their decisions. As a result on workers, suppliers, the community, consumers
and the environment. They have all also scored highly on an extensive assessment
of their approaches. All to governance, community, and environment. That’s as well
as a review of their overall business models.

As the [B Corp website](https://bcorporation.net) notes:

_“B Corp is to business what Fair Trade certification is to coffee. Or the USDA 
Organic certification is to milk…”_

In addition, [Eco-Products](https://greenlivingguy.com/2017/12/eco-products-helps-seattle-mariners-earn-prestigious-green-glove-award/)
sells a variety of single-use cups, plates, napkins, trays, straws and take-out 
containers. Most noteworthy all [made from renewable resources and post-consumer recycled](https://greenlivingguy.com/2025/10/home-depot-fluorescent-recycling-made-easy/)
content. So its customers include professional sports teams. For example and like
the Minnesota Twins, venues like Red Rocks Amphitheatre, and campuses like the University
of Colorado at Boulder. Other customers include hospitals, corporate campuses and
convention centers. Furthermore a wide array of independent food service operators.
