Today we speak with Julia Andrus and Susan Sepaniak, founders of a company called Eco Green Crafts. Eco Green Crafts is a provider of environmental and consumer-friendly craft products, dedicated to protecting artists, crafters, and kids from the potentially harmful effects of dangerous chemicals and materials often found in everyday arts supplies.
In this interview, Julia shares her story as a cancer survivor and the motivation behind creating Eco Green Crafts. She and Susan tell us more about the tremendous opportunities that exist for creating healthier, less toxic products in the world of art supplies.
They also explain the international ASTM rating system, and the new code that designates products that are more eco-friendly. To find out more about the these guidelines and the facts behind some of the chemicals used in the industry, they point us to an article posted on their website that can be found via this link, “how-safe-are-traditional-artists-materials“.
