SVANEN – ECO-LABELING

GULLMARSSTRAND IS ENVIRONMENTALLY CERTIFIED THROUGH SVANEN

Svanen was “born” in 1989 when the Nordic Council of Ministers started the Swan labeling to help consumers make good choices for the environment. It started with paper and batteries, and today you can find Svanen on more than ten thousand goods and services. After a few years, Svanen was joined by the EU Flower, the EU’s eco-label. The state-owned company Environmental Labeling Sweden is responsible for both Svanen and the EU Flower and works non-profit on behalf of the government.
