Avoid Greenwashing When Pressure Mounts
If a fully recycled zipper would delay production, say so and explain your interim choice. Customers respect concrete constraints and clear timelines to improve. Document the decision publicly and update progress monthly. Invite readers to suggest alternative suppliers; collaboration often surfaces solutions you missed internally.
Avoid Greenwashing When Pressure Mounts
Use precise language anchored in standards and dates. Replace “sustainable” with specifics like “100% post-consumer recycled aluminum, third-party verified, 2025 target.” Provide sources, define terms, and avoid unverifiable absolutes. A short claims checklist shared with your team prevents accidental overreach, saving both reputation and momentum.
