What it means	The European Commission's voluntary environmental label. Covers cleaning products, paper, textiles, electronics, accommodation services. NOT an organic mark.	Finland's national organic 'Sun Mark' (Aurinkomerkki). Operated by the Finnish Food Authority. In practice most Finnish organic packaging carries both Luomu and the EU Leaf — they certify to the same baseline.	Mexico's national organic mark, administered by SENASICA under the Ley de Productos Orgánicos (LPO).	Germany's largest organic farmers' association. Bioland-certified farms operate to a stricter private standard than the EU baseline.

Guarantees	Lifecycle-based environmental criteria per product category. Restrictions on hazardous chemicals. Annual licence renewal with audit.	EU baseline organic (Finnish supply chains end-to-end). Annual on-site inspection by the Finnish Food Authority.	≥95% organic ingredients per LPO. Annual on-site inspection by SENASICA-accredited certifier.	Whole-farm conversion (no parallel conventional production). Lower permitted nitrogen inputs than EU baseline. Animal welfare standards stricter than EU baseline. Annual on-site inspection.
Does NOT	Doesn't apply to food. Doesn't mean organic.	The Sun Mark is awarded only to fully Finnish supply chains — imports use the EU Leaf alone.	USDA equivalence is granted product-by-product, not blanket.	Like Naturland, membership-based — only Bioland-association farms can use the mark.
