The European Commission’s Directorate-General for Environment published a news item reflecting on the impact of the EU Ecolabel symbolised by the small green flower since its introduction, in 1992. Highlighted during EU Green Week 2025, the Ecolabel champions sustainable production and empowers consumers with clear, verified information, thereby advancing a clean, circular and competitive European economy.
