Look for certifications on the packaging or website of the product to ensure that it is made from sustainable materials. Make sure that any claims about being eco-friendly or sustainable are backed up by an independent third-party certification such as Cradle to Cradle, Forest Stewardship Council, Oeko-Tex, or Fair Trade. If a product is not certified, research the materials it is made from and look for reviews of the product online to be sure that it does not cause harm to the environment.

 Look for products that are certified by eco-friendly organizations such as FSC (Forest Stewardship Council), GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard), or Rainforest Alliance. Also make sure to check the label and look for ingredients that are sustainably sourced, such as organic cotton, hemp, bamboo or reused or recyclable materials. When in doubt, do research on the company to make sure they have an environmentally conscious approach to manufacturing their products.
