What is a Ecolabel?

It is a labeling practice that defines the environmental performance of a product or service throughout its life cycle in a specific category. Ecolabels are used to demonstrate that products and services have low harmful effects on the environment. The voluntary eco-label system encourages the preference of products with good environmental performance by sharing the environmental impacts of a product or service throughout the production processes with consumers and provides market advantage to these products. Eco-labels, which enable businesses to make environmentally sensitive improvements in their production processes to protect their market share, are practices that contribute to the efficient use of resources and the prevention of pollution.
