Environmental labels
There are environmental labels within most product areas. Below we explain some of the product labels that are often seen on the nordic market. The information is gathered on each of the labels´ homepages. Please let us know if there are any labels that you are missing!
Cosmetic products
Concepts and legislation
Today there are many different concepts used in the marketing of products and its ingredients. As a consumer, we also place high demands on the products we buy and expect them to live up to our expectations. But what does it mean when a product is vegan? And did you know that no cosmetic products produced in Europe can be tested on animals by law? At the same time, there is no legislation regarding how much of the ingredients in an organic product should be organic. We hope to help in shedding som light on some of the terms here!
Packaging options
Aerosols
In the choice of product, packaging is also an important component from a sustainability perspective. Today, we are actively working to find packaging types that minimize the amount of packaging per product, recyclable materials and materials that can facilitate the product’s durability. Paragon Nordic works with all types of packaging materials, but as we are the largest aerosol manufacturer in Sweden and have unique expertice in this area on the Scandinavian market, we will here review the benefits of the aerosol packaging alternative.
