There are multiple certifications that consumers can now use to identify detergents that are helping support sustainability. The European Ecolabel outlines strict requirements on raw materials, performance, and environmentally friendly practices, while many consumers also look for fragrance-free, hypoallergenic and dermatologically tested labels.

Finally, the Nordic Swan Ecolabel is another third-party certification that demands high environmental and climate requirements. At Electrolux Professional Group, we’re proud to produce a wide range of highly effective, eco-friendly detergents for our Line 6000 range that achieve all these certifications.
