Frequently asked questions

Find essential details about our services and helpful guidance for getting started and staying informed.

Do I need to choose between the Nordic Swan Ecolabel and the EU Ecolabel before contacting you?

No. The most suitable certification depends on your product category, target markets, and business objectives. An initial assessment can help identify the best option.

Can existing products be certified, or is ecolabelling only relevant for new product development?

Both existing and new products can be certified. In many cases, existing products already meet a significant proportion of the requirements, making certification a realistic option.

How do I know if my product is eligible for certification?

Both the Nordic Swan Ecolabel and the EU Ecolabel cover a wide range of product and service categories. Eligibility can be assessed during an initial screening.

Can you help with only part of the certification process?

Yes. Support can be provided for specific tasks such as chemical assessments, documentation reviews, technical calculations, supplier communication, or application management.

What documentation is typically required?

Documentation requirements vary by product category and certification scheme. Typical documentation may include Safety Data Sheets (SDS), supplier declarations, technical specifications, test reports, and environmental data.

How long does the certification process take?

The timeline depends on the complexity of the product, the availability of documentation, and the relevant criteria. Most projects take several months from initial assessment to licence approval.

Do you work with companies outside Denmark?

Yes. Support is provided to companies across Europe and internationally.

Does Ecolabel Consulting certify products?

No. Ecolabel Consulting is an independent consultancy and does not issue ecolabel licences.

The Nordic Swan Ecolabel and the EU Ecolabel are administered by the relevant national Competent Bodies, which are responsible for assessing applications and making certification decisions.

Ecolabel Consulting supports companies in understanding the criteria, demonstrating compliance, and navigating the certification process efficiently. As an independent consultant, my role is to help ensure that applications are well-prepared and supported by the necessary documentation before submission to the relevant Competent Body.

Why work with Ecolabel Consulting?

With seven years of experience from Ecolabelling Denmark, including application assessments and criteria development, Ecolabel Consulting offers specialist knowledge of certification requirements, technical documentation, and compliance processes.
