Ecolabeling Regulatory Support - Overview
Ecolabeling is a voluntary labeling method that identifies environmentally sustainable products with a distinct label. The ecomark or ecolabel on a product indicates its minimal negative impact on the environment.
Ecolabeling also differentiates a product from similar products in the same category by endorsing its eco-friendly nature. It allows consumers to make environmentally favorable choices by helping them choose sustainable products that are potentially less harmful to the environment. The use and significance of ecolabels span food, cosmetics, and the entire range of consumer products.
Along with building trust for the brand, an ecolabel also helps the manufacturer portray an eco-friendly/environmentally sustainable image of their product to consumers and stakeholders. Hence, companies are eager to make their products more sustainable and compliant at every phase of the value chain. Regulatory bodies are also becoming increasingly attentive to products that display harmful effects during their production, use, or disposal. In these scenarios, sustainability labeling/environmental labeling has become the need of the hour. Recent years have also seen an increase in ecolabeling Regulatory support across countries and business sectors.
Product and Packaging Ecolabeling
Most manufacturers believe that an ecolabel, ecomark, or eco-design is required only on ecolabeling products. However, ecolabels are applicable for packaging as well.
A product ecolabel validates that a product is environmentally sustainable, while a packaging ecolabel certifies that the packaging material is recycled, recyclable, or biodegradable.
As sustainability gains prominence across the globe, it is pivotal to select a Regulatory partner for ecolabeling requirements and achieve compliance with the global Regulatory bodies.
