eco marks of conformity until August 2007

Until August 2007, the UL ECO-INSTITUT labelled construction products, mattresses and furniture meeting even the strictest requirements on pollutants and emissions with the eco certificate Produkt Emissionsarm schadstoffgeprüft (product low-emission pollutant-tested) or the eco certificate Ökologische Produktprüfung (ecological product test).

eco certificates superceded by new eco-INSTITUT-Label

Those two eco certficates are not issued any more to new products since August, 2007. The certificates have been gradually superceded by the new eco-INSTITUT-Label.

Products already labelled with the eco certificate Produkt Emissionsarm schadstoffgeprüft (product low-emission pollutant-tested) or the eco certificate Ökologische Produktprüfung (ecological product test) continued to hold these marks of quality for the period of interim til July 31, 2007.
