Green Label Singapore- Deckrete CP

Singapore Green Label Certification ; Category: 032- Paints & Surface Coating

The Singapore Green Labelling Scheme (SGLS) was launched in May 1992 by the Ministry of the Environment. It was handed over to Singapore Environment Council (SEC) on 5 June 1999 and is currently fully owned by the SEC.

The Green Label aims to help the public identify environment-friendly products that meet certain eco-standards specified by the scheme and seeks to encourage the level of eco-consumerism in Singapore as well as to identify the growing demand for greener products in the market. The scheme hopes to create a backlash effect, encouraging manufacturers to design and manufacture with the environment in mind.

1. Epoxy coatings
2. Powder coatings
3. Solvent-based coatings
4. Recycled paint
5. Water-based coatings (including polymer emulsion paints)
