Green Claims Directive
The proposed EU Green Claims Directive (COM/2023/166) targets unsubstantiated environmental claims — including category-level claims such as "eco-friendly" or "sustainable" applied to growing media and soil improvers without verified certification. EU Ecolabel certification in this product group provides the kind of third-party verified, criteria-based substantiation the Directive is designed to require.
Businesses making green claims about growing media and soil improvers sold in the EU should ensure any active EU Ecolabel licence covering those products remains current and that claims accurately reflect the scope of the licence.
Verdandi monitors EU Ecolabel product group criteria revisions and Green Claims Directive developments — so your compliance picture stays current.
