Sustainable Purchasing Guide

King County employees’ daily purchases have a significant impact on our economy, communities, and the environment. To support our sustainability goals, we rely on trusted ecolabels — specifically those recommended by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and verified by independent third parties. The contracts featured in this guide align with these standards and advance King County's Strategic Climate Action Plan goals, ensuring that our procurement practices help build a healthier, more sustainable future.
