You might have heard that the Green Claims Directive will not come into play – but did you know that the new EU Empowering Consumers Directive (EmpCo) will heavily impact the rules of green claims in Europe by itself? The EmpCo will come into effect this summer, affecting most sustainability claims throughout the European market. Through its rules, claims must be accurate and substantiated, to provide consumers with clearer, relevant and more detailed information. The Directive aims to strengthen consumer rights and protect them from deceptive practices related to sustainability claims, such as greenwashing and obsolescence.
Whether you still need to adapt your claims to the upcoming legislation or want a final check-up before the Directive applies in September – this webinar is for you.
