3. Activated Carbon Filter removes unwanted odour from sources such as pets, cooking or tobacco smoke.
4. And in a world-first, the Amezcua Air Filter will energise your air by tuning its electromagnetic imprint to that of humans and living organisms.

CASE launches accreditation scheme for direct selling companies

SINGAPORE — An accreditation scheme for direct selling businesses was launched today (Jan 8) by the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) and Direct Selling Association of Singapore (DSAS).

The CaseTrust Accreditation Mark was also awarded to 14 direct selling companies — including Amway (Singapore), Herbalife International, Nu Skin Enterprises and Qnet—at the launch event held at Safra Toa Payoh.

Companies under the scheme — which is open only to DSAS members — have to give consumers a cooling-off period of seven working days, during which they can seek full refund of any payment without being penalized, produce an order form at the time of sale that clearly states the direct seller’s contact details, and put in place a well-defined system to address conflicts.

Internal assessments will be conducted every two years, and an external audit every four years, to ensure compliance.

The scheme was first mooted in July 2013 when both associations signed a memorandum of understanding to promote fair and ethical conduct in the direct selling industry and better protect consumers.

It comes on the heels of increasing complaints against the sector. CASE received 82 complaints involving direct sales last year, up from 46 in 2012. Most of these involve consumers complaining about hard-selling tactics or having problems getting refunds. Out of 187 complaint cases over the last three years, 9 per cent, or 17 cases, were targeted at DSAS members.

Qnet: 10 Small Ways to Conserve and Protect Our Environment

In celebration of Earth Day, here are some reminders about how you can contribute to saving our one and only planet. Population boom and fossil fuel based technological advancements have taken a serious toll on our natural environment. So now we need to do our part in reversing the effects of degradation in order for humanity to continue living in a habitable and sustainable way.

Here are 10 simple ways to conserve and protect the environment through small changes to your daily routine for a better world for you, your family, your community and all living things now and forever.

1. Create a compost heap in your garden or use a compost bin. This helps recycle food waste and other biodegradable materials.

2. When going shopping, make it a habit to bring your own eco-bags and say no to plastic bags as much as possible.

3. Join as many tree planting trips as you can.

4. If possible, try carpooling to work, business presentations, events, or even to run errands. Think of ways you can reduce the number of trips you make using your car.

5. Reduce emissions from cars by walking or cycling. These are not just great alternatives to driving, they are also great exercise.

6. Use public transport, when you can, for everyday travel.

7. Send your drinking bottles, paper, used oil, old batteries and used tires to a depot for recycling or safe disposal; all these very cause serious pollution.

8. Do not pour chemicals and waste oil on to the ground or into drains leading to bodies of water.

9. Wherever possible, separate biodegradable and recyclable waste from non-biodegradable and work to reduce the amount of non-biodegradable or recyclable waste.

10. Reduce the amount of meat you eat, or even better become vegetarian.
