• 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.

• Nordic Swan Ecolabel

  Nordic Swan Ecolabel is a label used to indicate that a product is environmentally friendly and meets certain sustainability standards. The label is used in the Nordic countries (Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Iceland) and it is granted by the Nordic Ecolabelling, an independent organization. The standards set by the Nordic Ecolabelling are based on the EU criteria for eco-labeling and they cover a wide range of products, from cleaning products to electrical appliances. To be awarded the Nordic Swan label, products must meet strict environmental criteria and they must be produced with the aim to reduce the environmental impact.

• OK Compost

  OK Compost is a certification program that verifies the biodegradability and compostability of products in industrial conditions. It is awarded by TUV Austria, an independent testing and certification organization. The program verifies that a product will break down into natural substances and not leave behind harmful residue in industrial composting facilities. Products that meet the requirements and pass the testing can use the OK Compost label on their packaging to show that they are biodegradable and compostable in industrial conditions. To be able to use the OK Compost label, a product must meet certain requirements set by TUV Austria, such as passing specific biodegradability and compostability tests in industrial conditions and not leaving behind harmful residue.
