Standards and labels

Standards have not been specified

• Food Safe

  Food safe refers to the safety of food products that are used or consumed by people. In Europe, food safety is regulated by the European Union (EU) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). These organizations set standards and requirements for food products to ensure they are safe to eat. To be considered "food safe" in Europe, a product must meet these standards and be free of harmful substances. This includes being free of harmful bacteria, pesticides, and other contaminants. Food products that do not meet these standards cannot be sold or used in the EU.

• EU Ecolabel

  The EU Ecolabel is a certification mark used in Europe for products that have been assessed for their environmental performance. It is used to indicate that a product has been evaluated against a set of environmental criteria set by the European Union, such as energy and resource efficiency, and that it has been found to be among the top-performing products in its category in terms of sustainability. The requirements for using the EU Ecolabel will vary depending on the product category, but typically include meeting certain environmental performance standards, such as the use of renewable resources and recycling, and undergoing regular monitoring and re-evaluation by an independent certifying body.

• FSC Mix

  FSC Mix is a label that indicates that a product contains a mix of wood from both responsibly managed forests (FSC certified) and other sources. In Europe, to use the FSC Mix label, a company must ensure that the wood used in the product is from legal and responsibly managed sources. Additionally, the company must have a system in place to track the wood used in the product and be able to prove that it comes from a mix of FSC certified and other sources.
