Compare green Products with eco rate

December 4, 2009 by · Leave a Comment 

With so many eco-friendly products in the market, it can be difficult to distinguish between one product and another. Eco rate is a web site that can help you choose the best eco-friendly product: you can rate a product against a list of criteria.

The criteria listed in the web site can help you compare the costs in relation to the products’ environmental friendliness. The eco rating takes into account criteria such as;

• Environmental Impact: This is an overall environmental rating on a product in relation to the product’s manufacturer and where it was produced.
• Consumption: The amount of energy the product consumes.
• Toxicity: The amount of toxic materials in the product and how these materials impact the enviroment.
• Life Cycle Cost: The price of the product and the cost of consumption.
• Price Rating: The product’s price in comparison to similar products in the market.

In addition to this, the site also provides information about state rebates provided for certain products and local recycling facilities. The Eco Rating also sells the company’s own products, which include lighting and electronics. An online simulator of a home lets you know what products you should be using and can also help you find the ones you are looking for. For those who may seem confused about certain terms, the web site includes a dictionary for green terms.

Eco rating is a fun and easy way to get the best products for your home and still make sure your being kind to the enviroment.
