realized that being environmentally and socially responsible is important to our
customers,  employees and  shareholders.  This Program gives us the  third-party
verification  we were looking for to validate our  environmental  practices  and
policies.  The EcoLogo  offers our  customers  assurance  that they have made an
environmentally  responsible  choice when they buy." The four main  requirements
for  a  product  to be  certified  are:

o        Manufactured in an environmentally responsible, eco-efficient manner
o        Minimal effect on the environment while in use and after use
o        The company  producing the product must have certain quality  assurance
         elements in place
