What it means	The European Commission's voluntary environmental label. Covers cleaning products, paper, textiles, electronics, accommodation services. NOT an organic mark.	New Zealand's largest organic certifier. Recognised by the EU, US, and Japan under their respective import-equivalence regimes.	An EU-based natural-and-organic cosmetics certification. Three grades: Natural, Natural with Organic portion, and Organic.	Denmark's national organic mark, owned by the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration. The red Ø is one of the most-trusted food labels in the world — recognised by ~98% of Danish consumers.

Does NOT	Doesn't apply to food. Doesn't mean organic.	New Zealand has no single legally-mandated 'organic' definition — voluntary certification is the norm.	Mark is trademark-protected.	Outside Denmark, retailers usually rely on the EU Leaf rather than the Ø.
