Greengo rolling papers with FSC logo – a recognizable label that stands for responsible forest management.
In today’s world of conscious consumers, logos and labels can be the deciding factor in a purchase. They offer instant trust and clarity about the origin and sustainability of a product. Greengo products carry several trusted certifications, such as FSC™ on paper and packaging, and notes like “Totally Chlorine Free” (TCF) on our rolling papers. But what do these labels actually mean, and how can you use them in a sales conversation? In this article, we explain the most important Greengo certifications and why they matter — for your business and for your customers.
FSC – Forest Stewardship Council
Many Greengo packaging and paper products carry the FSC label. The FSC certification ensures that the paper comes from responsibly managed forests. For every tree that’s cut down, a new one is planted — or other measures are taken to maintain the ecosystem’s balance. The rights of local communities and workers are also respected throughout the production process.
For your customer, an FSC logo simply means they are buying a product that doesn’t contribute to deforestation. In a time of growing concern over the Amazon and other forests, that’s a real plus. You can emphasize this by saying: “See this little tree logo? That’s FSC a guarantee that no forests were destroyed to make these papers. Greengo consciously chooses sustainable paper production.” Many people vaguely recognize the logo; a quick explanation can increase their appreciation of the product.
What does this logo look like and what does it mean exactly?
This widely used label also indicates that Greengo uses recycled pulp where possible. Good to know as a retailer — especially for that one customer who likes to dive into the details.
3 Certifications
Besides the FSC label, you’ll find three more certifications on Greengo product packaging:
100% Chemical Free
Greengo rolling papers are marked as “100% Chemical Free.” This means that no chemical agents like chlorine or chlorine compounds were used during production to bleach the paper. Many white papers (like conventional rolling papers) go through a chlorine bleaching process, which leaves traces in the paper and harms the environment.
Why is Chemical Free important? First, the environment: chlorine bleaching creates chemical wastewater. Avoiding it is an eco-conscious choice. Second, health: chlorine residues in paper can release dioxins and other harmful substances when burned. With chemical-free papers, customers can be sure this isn’t the case.
You can proudly state that all Greengo rolling papers are Totally Chemical Free. That’s something most major brands can’t say. It reflects Greengo’s commitment to purity. When a customer asks, “What makes this better than brand X?” — “It’s 100% free from chemical bleaching, so it’s cleaner for you and the planet” is a clear and compelling answer.
100% Non GMO
At Greengo, we believe that nature provides all the power we need. That’s why our products are 100% NON-GMO — free from genetically modified ingredients. No artificial alterations, no cell-level manipulation. Just pure, honest materials the way nature intended.
Whether it’s our rolling papers, filters or other items,with Greengo you’re choosing a natural and responsible lifestyle. Our NON-GMO approach isn’t a trend, it’s a belief. This way, you contribute to a cleaner world with respect for people, plants and the planet.
100% Unrefined
Greengo stands for purity. That’s why our products are 100% unrefined — meaning: unbleached, untreated, and free from unnecessary additives. What you see is what you get: natural fibers, in their original form, with a recognizable light brown color.
By keeping the material untouched, its original properties are preserved. That’s better for you — and better for the planet. No chlorine, no colorants, no compromises. Just honest, sustainable, 100% Greengo.
Biodegradable & Compostable
While there’s no official label for it, Greengo clearly communicates that certain products (like our BIO filters) are biodegradable. This means they naturally break down into harmless substances under normal conditions. You can point this out using general compostable symbols or simply by explaining the concept. Eco-conscious customers usually understand terms like “biodegradable” just fine.
If you have customers specifically asking about compostable materials: Greengo’s bio-filters break down in months to a few years, compared to 10+ years for conventional filters.
Other Relevant Certifications
Greengo’s bamboo sunglasses carry an RCS certification for the polycarbonate component.
That stands for Recycled Content Standard, which verifies that the recycled content in a product is traceable and controlled throughout the entire production chain. While this may be a bit too detailed for the average customer, eco-shop owners may appreciate the fact that even the sunglasses and their packaging are certified sustainable.
How to Use Certifications in Sales
Certifications can work in two ways:
- Passively: The customer sees the logo and gains trust without you needing to explain anything.
- Actively: You reference it in conversation to support your pitch.
Especially with customers who are hesitant or unsure of the added value, pointing out certifications can help:
“You might pay a tiny bit more for this one, but look at these certifications — that other product doesn’t have them. That means quality and sustainability.”
Make sure you and your team know the basics behind each label on your products. No need for a long speech — often, one well-phrased sentence is enough. Too much detail can overwhelm the customer. Gauge their interest level: some customers want an in-depth explanation about FSC, while others are convinced as soon as you say, “This paper is sustainably produced and certified. So, it’s good stuff.”
Trust & Transparency
And finally: certifications and labels offer transparency. Greengo has nothing to hide — in fact, we’ve got a lot to be proud of. And in an industry that hasn’t always been open, that’s refreshing. By passing on that transparency in your store, you build trust with your customers. They’ll know: this shop offers honest information and responsible products. And that kind of trust is worth its weight in gold in today’s market.
Conclusion: The certifications on Greengo products aren’t just decorative, they tell a story of sustainability and quality. As a seller, you can use these labels to highlight Greengo’s strengths and build confidence with your customers. A customer who understands what FSC or TCF means will make their purchase with greater satisfaction. And a happy, well-informed customer? That’s one who returns.
