Ecolabeling Regulatory Support – Overview
Ecolabeling is a voluntary labeling method that identifies environmentally sustainable products with a distinct label. The eco mark, 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.
Along with building trust in 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 food products more sustainable and compliant at every phase of the value chain. Regulatory bodies are increasingly vigilant regarding food products that exhibit harmful effects during their production, use, or disposal. In response to these concerns, sustainability labeling, or environmental labeling, has become imperative. In recent years, there has been a notable surge in Regulatory support for ecolabeling across various countries and industries.
Ecolabeling for Product and Packaging
Most manufacturers believe that an ecolabel, eco mark, or eco design is only required on ecolabeling products. However, ecolabels are applicable for packaging as well. An 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 global Regulatory bodies.
