Navigating Voluntary Environmental Labelling

As consumer awareness of environmental sustainability continues to grow, companies are increasingly keen to demonstrate their dedication to this cause. This has led to an increase in communication about the environmental performance of products and services placed on the market.

Voluntary environmental labels have been created specifically with the aim of supporting comprehensible, transparent, and science-based environmental communication.

Join us for an insightful webinar where we will focus on the specifics of voluntary environmental labelling. Learn about the three main types of labels:

• Type I Ecolabels: Certification through recognised eco-labelling schemes like the EU Ecolabel, Nordic Swan, and German Blue Angel (ISO 14024)
• Type II Ecolabels: Self-declared environmental claims such as 100% recyclable, 100% compostable, and 100% biodegradable (ISO 14021)
• Type III Ecolabels: Environmental declarations based on quantitative criteria and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA, EPD, and PEP) (ISO 14025).

Discover the steps involved in obtaining a Type III environmental label, from the initial study to the rigorous third-party verification process. Explore major programme operators (eg International EPD System, EPDItaly, PEP Ecopassport) and enhance your understanding with compelling case studies that bring these concepts to life.

Don’t miss this opportunity to deepen your understanding of environmental communication and learn how voluntary labelling can enhance your business's environmental strategy.
