Maxx Performance Joins GreenPalm to Promote Sustainability
June 27, 2012Maxx Performance is proud to announce it has joined the worldwide Green Palm Sustainability Project. Endorsed by the international RSPO (Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil), GreenPalm is working to solve the environment and social problems surrounding the production of Palm Oil around the world.
The innovative GreenPalm program is the exclusive provider of the RSPO Book&Claim supply chain option. RSPO certification is designed to regulate mills and their plantation supply base against 8 principles and criteria which cover the major social, environmental and economic issues being caused by the global production of palm oil.
Says Maxx Performance president Winston Samuels, “Our customers will be pleased to know that for every ton of palm oil and palm kernel oil we use in the production of microencapsulates, we’ve paid a voluntary premium to a palm oil producer who is certified as operating within the RSPO’s strict guidelines for social and environmental responsibility.”
Continued Samuels, “We’re proud to join the ranks of Nestle, Kraft and Wal-Mart in supporting sustainability and making a tremendously positive impact on our industry.”
