What it means	The official environmental label of the Nordic countries (Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Iceland). Covers ~60 product categories from cleaning products to hotels — NOT specifically an organic standard.	Mexico's national organic mark, administered by SENASICA under the Ley de Productos Orgánicos (LPO).	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.
Scope	Several categories	Food	Food
Established	1989	2006	1995
Inspection	On-site + product review by national Ecolabel office	Annual on-site, SENASICA-accredited	Annual on-site by Finnish Food Authority
Residue testing	Risk-based per category	Required	Required
Guarantees	Lifecycle-based environmental criteria for the product category. Restrictions on hazardous chemicals. Recyclability and packaging requirements. Audited every 3-5 years against an updated standard.	≥95% organic ingredients per LPO. Annual on-site inspection by SENASICA-accredited certifier.	EU baseline organic (Finnish supply chains end-to-end). Annual on-site inspection by the Finnish Food Authority.
Does NOT	Doesn't certify food as organic — Nordic Swan on a food package means lower-environmental-impact, not 'no synthetic pesticides'.	USDA equivalence is granted product-by-product, not blanket.	The Sun Mark is awarded only to fully Finnish supply chains — imports use the EU Leaf alone.
