About eco facts

Every product shows the same four facts so you can compare like for like.

Materials

What the product and its packaging are made from, including recycled content.

Carbon footprint

Estimated kg of CO₂ equivalent per unit, from raw materials to the maker’s gate. Makers provide the figure and the method; we check it looks reasonable.

End of life

What happens when you’re done with it — reuse, recycling, home or industrial composting.

Eco label

One headline label (Compostable, Organic, Recycled, Refillable, Plastic-free, Reusable or Low-carbon) backed by a certificate or evidence.
