The new energy label

For more than 20 years, the energy label has helped consumers choose the most energy-efficient products. However, the old A-plus scale (A+++–D) had become less transparent, and in 2019 a new scale was introduced.

The new energy label features a scale from A to G and will be introduced in stages across all product groups over the coming years.

What are the main differences between the two energy labels?
The new energy label can be easily recognised by the A-G scale and the QR code on the upper right corner. Different, more distinguishable icons are used for the product features, and partly different reference values are applied for the energy consumption information.

Please note that the "Product Fiche" is going to be renamed to "Product Information Sheet" (PIS).
