European Ecolabel EU Flower

The European Eco-label (EU Flower) has also been created to distinguish products and services which comply with high requirements in the field of environmental protection and which are of relevance for the Single Market.

This includes, among other things, the limitation of energy consumption and of water consumption, the avoidance of waste, the preferred use of renewable resources, and the promotion of environmental education. The criteria were defined by the European Commission in cooperation with the Member States. In Austria the competent authority is the Federal Ministry.
