The run-up to Christmas is a hectic time as everyone is searching for the perfect presents. But many presents are harmful to the environment due to their production processes, ingredients or disposal method. People often find it difficult to find sustainable products and this is where the Blue Angel ecolabel can provide assistance. It raises awareness for the often invisible environmental aspects of products – from their environmentally friendly production and avoidance of hazardous substances through to their recyclability.

Dessau. To mark World Ecolabel Day on 10 October, the Blue Angel is publishing the representative survey by opinion research institute forsa on “Environmental awareness within your own four walls”.

The survey also shows: the government ecolabel Blue Angel is well known to almost everyone with 94% awareness.
