	EU Ecolabel (Flower) European Union · Tier 3 Specialty	Tún (Iceland) Iceland · Tier 1 Gold	Korea Organic South Korea · Tier 1 Gold
What it means	The European Commission's voluntary environmental label. Covers cleaning products, paper, textiles, electronics, accommodation services. NOT an organic mark.	Vottunarstofan Tún is Iceland's only accredited organic certifier. Accredited by MAST (Matvælastofnun) under the EU 2018/848-equivalent Icelandic standard, so a Tún-certified product is also recognised as EU-organic.	South Korea's national organic mark under MAFRA (Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs). Required on any food sold as 유기농 in Korea.
Scope	Several categories	Food	Food
Established	1992	1994	2001
Inspection	Annual audit by national Ecolabel competent body	Annual on-site, MAST-accredited	Annual on-site by MAFRA-accredited certifier
Residue testing	Per-category limits	Required for at-risk operations	Required
Guarantees	Lifecycle-based environmental criteria per product category. Restrictions on hazardous chemicals. Annual licence renewal with audit.	≥95% organic ingredients per EU rules. No synthetic pesticides, no GMOs. Annual on-site inspection. Animal welfare standards (outdoor / pasture access, geothermally-warmed greenhouse compatibility for vegetables).	≥95% organic ingredients. No synthetic pesticides, no GMOs. Annual on-site inspection by a MAFRA-accredited certifier.
Does NOT	Doesn't apply to food. Doesn't mean organic.	There aren't many Tún-certified operations (~120–160) — coverage in the Icelandic market is narrower than in the EU mainland.	Cosmetics and textiles are covered under separate Korean schemes, not this mark.
