Compare sustainability using concrete information
Choosing sustainable merchandise should be based on the data available for each product: composition, materials, certifications, reusability and environmental indicators. Not every product provides the same level of information.
FSC™
FSC information identifies products for which the supplier states the use of FSC™-certified materials.
Our Nature
The catalogue may identify products that belong to the supplier’s Our Nature range.
CO₂
When available, CO₂ is shown in kg of CO₂ equivalent as an additional comparison point.
H₂O
When available, H₂O adds information about water use associated with the product.
Start with composition
Compare the declared material, composition and product properties. Use terms such as recycled or FSC only when they apply to that specific reference.
Consider actual use
Durability, reusability and suitability for the recipient matter too. The product should make sense for its intended use.
Communicate only documented claims
Avoid extending environmental claims. Communication should reflect the materials, certifications and indicators actually provided.
Want to explore specific materials?
