Company Overview

Seventh Generation is committed to being the most trusted brand of household and personal-care products for a healthy home. We work with our manufacturing partners to make cleaning, paper, baby and feminine personal care products that are healthy and safe for the air, the surfaces, the fabrics, the pets, and the people within the home — and for the community and environment outside of it. Working through our retail partners, we primarily sell our products in the United States, Canada, on the internet, and at military commissaries worldwide.

For 20 years, our privately held Burlington, Vermont company has been at the forefront of a cultural change in consumer behavior and business ethics. We operate according to a new and different set of principles and values that are in many ways a marked departure from those long considered “traditional.” Our name comes from the Great Law of the Iroquois that states, ‘In our every deliberation, we must consider the impact of our decisions on the next seven generations.’

We turned 20 this year! See the video of our history. go/20th

And also great to see that they are really opened to integrate stakeholders not only in the beginning of the reporting process, but also in the publication, showing that it's a true ongoing process. And the best practices book is a great idea. Two-thumbs up!
