The ecolabels the Flower and the Swan

The official ecolabels in Denmark, the Flower (European Eco-label) and the Swan (Nordic Eco-label), are administered by Ecolabelling Denmark, an independent third party. When you buy a product or service with the Flower or Swan label, you are guaranteed:
 
- That it lives up to strict environmental requirements
- That its health impact has been considered
- That it is of good quality

You will find much more information about the Flower and Swan ecolabels at www.ecolabel.dk.
To qualify for the Flower label, campsites have to comply with stringent environmental criteria, including requirements with respect to:
 
- Energy consumption
- Water consumption and wastewater treatment
- Waste production and separation
- Favouring the use of renewable resources
- Training of staff to ensure compliance with the environmental criteria
- Information about its environmental policy
 
In addition to the above mandatory criteria, the Flower defines a set of optional criteria with a points system, including with respect to the use of eco-labelled detergents and paper, organic food, and maintaining the site without using insecticides. It is up to each campsite to select the optional criteria it wishes to comply with in order to score the required number of ‘eco-points’ to be awarded the Flower label.
 

You get the same facilities

A Flower-labelled campsite offers exactly the same facilities as a comparable unlabelled site; it just adds a green edge to your camping holiday.
You can also find Flower-labelled campsites in other European countries – go to www.eco-label.com and search for campsite services.
