Certified bedding and commitment for tomorrow's world
In recent years, an eco-label has been appearing everywhere in Europe setting strict, clear rules; it in globes many criteria such as the ecological aspects and overall impact on the environment, but also the intrinsic quality of the product via the certification of strength and comfort tests. As everyone knows, an organic product is not necessarily a quality product!
Therefore, it was only natural for Elite to join this initiative and offer its customers the recognition of the European Ecolabel certification.
Created in 1992, the European Ecolabel is the only European official eco-label that can be used in all EU member states. This Ecolabel is based on a global approach that takes into account the product life cycle right from the extraction of raw materials, through manufacturing, distribution, and use until recycling or disposal after use. Quality and use are also taken into account.
It identifies products that are more respectful of the environment. The criteria applied ensure suitability of products and reduced environmental impacts throughout their life cycle. Both the product and its packaging are concerned.
Scrupulously selected by Elite, our supplier and partners are also committed to this process. Each one follows strict recommendations and guarantees in their field, via various industry labels, to ensure the quality and ecological footprint of their raw materials supplied to Elite.
Thus, with the Ecolabel, the entire chain is perfectly controlled. To choose an Elite product is encompass all aspects of responsible purchasing combined with superior quality.
