Better Environment. Better Neighbor. Better Business
Watch the NPEP Video to learn how some of our partners have benefited from joining the program.
The National Partnership for Environmental Priorities (NPEP) is a partnership program focused on reducing the use of potentially hazardous chemicals from products and processes. By forming partnerships with EPA, NPEP partners representing industry, business, municipalities, federal facilities, and tribes, are successfully reducing the use of and/or recycling toxic chemicals, including mercury and lead. NPEP success stories illustrate partner commitment to environmental stewardship and show why NPEP has adopted the slogan: Better Environment, Better Neighbor, Better Business.
NPEP strives to improve chemical management to reduce the potential release of chemicals into the land, air or water that could affect human and environmental health. NPEP is part of the EPA’s Resource Conservation Challenge (RCC), a national effort to conserve natural resources and energy by managing materials more efficiently.
