Germans seek orientation when making environmentally friendly purchases
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”. For 74% of those surveyed, environmental friendliness is important or very important when purchasing household products – environmental friendliness is thus a little less important to respondents than quality (98%) and price (86%). The survey also shows: the government ecolabel Blue Angel is well known to almost everyone with 94% awareness.

Announcement of the webinar: The Blue Angel for Event Catering and Canteen Services (DE-UZ 229)
The environmental goals have been supplemented by social aspects across the entire value added chain. This includes the use of fair trade food and criteria for the working conditions in canteen and catering services. Furthermore, companies are required to comply with the recommendations issued by the German Nutrition Society (DGE) because health aspects are crucially important to sustainable nutrition. The Blue Angel ecolabel not only provides consumers but also public procurers with reliable guidance for the sustainable consumption of food.
