#1. What is Greenaction?

Momar's Greenaction Product Line is environmentally responsible chemistry in action. Greenaction products utilize the latest, "greenest" technology to perform cleaning tasks better than traditional products while minimizing the effects on environmental and human health. All Momar Greenaction products have been designed in partnership with the EPA DfE.

#2. What are the 4 main user benefits of using Momar's Greenaction products?

Environmental Protection
Worker/Consumer Safety
Resource Conservation
Customer Education

#3. What is the EPA's DfE program?

Situated in the U.S. EPA's Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT), the Design for the Environment (DfE) Formulator Program is a product formulator's gateway to OPPT's unique chemical expertise, information resources, and guidance on greener chemistry. The program gathers hazard information on chemical ingredients and works with OPPT's science experts to assess this information and compare the relative safety of chemicals.

Since 1997, DfE has offered recognition to those companies who design for the environment and human health by only using safer chemicals. Momar is proud to be a partner with the EPA in this program.

#4. Why is the EPA DfE better?

The DfE Program is distinct from all other product recognition or ecolabeling programs because of two defining characteristics: its technical review team and its assessment methodology.

The DfE technical review team has many years of experience and is highly skilled at assessing chemical hazards, applying predictive tools, and identifying safer substitute for chemicals of concern.
The review team applies the DfE assessment methodology by carefully reviewing each product component to determine its key health and environmental characteristics. The review includes all chemicals, including those in proprietary raw material blends, which manufacturers share with DfE in confidentiality.

#5. How does DfE's component-based review compare with other product-based approaches?

The DfE Program is distinct from all other product recognition or ecolabeling programs because of two defining characteristics: its technical review team and its assessment methodology.

DfE uncovers chemicals of concern that can be masked by raw material blends or by dilution in water.
DfE spots negative synergies between product components.
DfE uses its expert knowledge and predictive tools to supplement lists of chemicals of concern.
DfE screens all fragrances and dyes for chemicals that may pose serious health or environmental effects.
DfE recommends safer substitutes for chemicals of concern.

#6. Do Momar's Greenaction products actually work?

YES!!! Momar chemists understand that the "green" movement will only prevail if "green" products perform as well or better than conventional products. Therefore, Momar chemists designed the Greenaction products with performance in mind. Each Greenaction product has been subjected to a series of standardized and side-by-side performance tests. Only formulations that performed as well or better than traditional cleaners proudly bear the Momar Greenaction logo.

#7. What formulary conditions must all Greenaction products meet?

As required by EPA DfE and/or Momar Greenaction standards, Greenaction products meet the following 25 conditions:

Non-corrosive
Non-flammable
Neutral or mild pH
No fuming acids or harsh alkalis, HMIS codes of 0 or 1...

#8. Question: Does Momar manufacture any "Green" Water Treatment Products?

Yes, Momar manufactures more than 30 water treatment products for cooling towers, boilers, and wastewater treatment.

#9. Question: What other ways is Momar working to improve the environment and act as an environmental leader?

Answer: Momar is an approved partner with the EPA's Safer Detergents Stewardship Initiative (SDSI) and has committed to eliminate the use of nonylphenolethoxylates (NPEs) in all products and replace them with safer surfactants such as alcohol ethoxylates, alcohol alkoxylates, alkyl glucosides, and linear alkylbenzene sulfonate.

Formulated with a synergistic blend of all-natural active ingredients, Thyme Bomb delivers a fast knock down and kill of all crawling insects and provides up to 1 month residual kill and repellency.

Unlike smelly petroleum derived insecticides, Thyme Bomb deodorizes as it works with a fresh, wintergreen fragrance. Because Thyme Bomb is so safe to use and is federally EPA Exempt, it can be applied without a license and without special protective equipment.
