Defining “Green”
Before Vine.com carries a product, Vine.com reviews product descriptions (including descriptions of ingredients and materials) that areprovided by a vendor. Those products descriptions are then compared to Vine.com’s standards.
To be available on Vine.com, a product (based on its description) must fall into at least one of the following categories:
Designed to Remove Toxins
Energy Efficient
Natural
Organic
Powered by Renewable Energy
Reusable
Made of Sustainable Materials
Water Efficient
As part of its product selection process, Vine.com developed a Banned Ingredients List; and Vine.com vendors must confirm that their products do not contain substances on the list.
