The bluepass chemical product mark appears on chemical product packaging
and in digital documentation. It can also appear on a finished product to
indicate that certification applies to a specific component (ingredient
claim).

Ingredient claims
-----------------

When the bluepass chemical product mark indicates that certification applies
to a specific chemical product within a finished good, name it clearly. For
example: "bluepass fluorine-free water repellent."

Avoid vague claims that do not name the component, such as "contains bluepass
chemicals."

See section 4.4 of the bluepass Labels & Claims Guide for full guidance on
ingredient claims.
