RASFF

Risk and analytical results

hazardObserved
The labelling as, 'eco-friendly', ‘100% biodegradable’ or 'vous faites vortre part pour l'environnement' (= you do your bit for the environment), is misleading as it focuses the customer’s attention on the ‘natural’ aspect rather than the real composition of the product. (Art. 3 EU 1935/2004).
