Milliken Earns Cleaner and Greener

Spartanburg, SC, September 24--Leonardo Academy’s Cleaner and Greener Program announces that Milliken & Company, with more than a century of sustainable stewardship, meets its stringent standards of certification. A certified company or organization must reach environmental requirements at four of five levels. The program supports the use of markets as a tool for reducing pollution and increasing energy efficiency and renewable energy, and encourages businesses and consumers to lead the way to a cleaner, greener, healthier environment. “The addition of a global textile leader to our list of certified companies proves the importance of green manufacturing,” said Michael Arny, founder and president of the Leonardo Academy. “We hope Milliken’s leadership will motivate other companies to embrace the program.”
