To qualify for an ECO LABEL certificate, a number of specified requirements must be met. The main criteria to be provided by the manufacturer can be listed as follows, without limitation:
The five criteria that are heavily emphasized are child labor, water pollution, atmospheric effects, waste generation and energy consumption in all product categories. Of these, the child labor criterion is related to the social welfare impact category within the framework of life cycle assessment, and social welfare issues are generally considered important. The other four criteria are related to environmental health in general.
Current eco-labeling programs do not adopt the consumer approval of criteria, but the selection of certain product categories according to their perceived environmental impact. Identifying consumer preferences for one or more of the criteria mainly helps in the development and reformulation of eco labeling programs.
