Requirements

Varefakta labelling is found on food, nonfood groceries, animal feed, childcare products, cosmetics, feminine hygiene products, bicycle locks, smoke detectors and much more. Products with Varefakta labelling often have a set of criteria that go beyond legislation – which we call requirements. Varefakta requirements are thus stricter than legislation. Varefakta Requirements are all structured in the same way to make them as easy-to-read and user-friendly as possible.
