All Timberland shoes to comply with Green Index
Outdoor footwear and apparel company Timberland says it plans to expand its Green Index label to all Timberland branded footwear. The company currently applies its Green Index rating to 14% of its footwear but it now plans to apply the rating to 100% of its footwear by the end of 2012. Besides helping footwear designers to reduce the impact of their designs, the initiative also educates consumers on the environmental impact of its products.
