The first regional eco-labeling program was launched in Latin America and the Caribbean, led by regulators, standardizers and accreditation bodies. The aim is to standardize the use of eco-labeling throughout the region by providing consumers with transparent and reliable information on the environmental impact of purchased products.
The regional eco-labeling program, a joint initiative of Costa Rica, Ecuador and Mexico, seeks to unify criteria to define the categories under which it will operate. This will make it possible to identify environmentally responsible products, thus strengthening a more conscious and sustainable regional market.
