What is the difference between environmental label product certification and environmental management system certification?

Hello, on this issue, there are many differences between environmental label product certification and environmental management system certification, as follows:

Goals and purposes of certification:

Environmental label product certification (also known as China environmental label product certification or ten ring certification) is a kind of product certification. Its purpose is to prove that the products approved to use the logo are not only qualified in quality, but also meet the requirements of environmental protection in the process of production, use, treatment and disposal. Compared with similar products, it has the advantages of low toxicity, less harm and resource saving. This certification helps consumers to know which products are beneficial to the environment and harmless to their own health, so as to make green purchases.

Environmental management system certification (such as ISO 1400 1 environmental management system certification) is an organization certification, which aims to help enterprises and organizations achieve the goal of environmental sustainable development. Reduce environmental pollution and resource consumption through effective environmental management and continuous improvement.

Certification bodies and standards:

The only certification institution of environmental label products is the Central Joint Certification Center, and its certification standards include the environmental performance requirements of products in design, production and use.

Environmental management system certification is carried out by many certification bodies, which need to follow international standards such as ISO 1400 1.

Contents and requirements of certification:

Environmental label product certification mainly focuses on the environmental performance of the product itself, including the selection of raw materials, production technology, environmental impact during use and disposal after waste.

Environmental management system certification requires enterprises and organizations to fully consider environmental factors and influences in all aspects and processes of management, and effective control and management are needed from product design, production and management to waste management. In addition, enterprises and organizations are required to establish an effective monitoring and evaluation mechanism to ensure the effectiveness and continuous improvement of the environmental management system.

Certification results and impacts:

Products that have obtained environmental label certification can use corresponding environmental labels to show their environmental performance to consumers. This will help guide consumers to make green consumption and promote enterprises to adopt more environmentally friendly production methods.

Enterprises and organizations that have passed the environmental management system certification can demonstrate the effectiveness and commitment of their environmental management and enhance their market competitiveness and credibility. At the same time, it also helps enterprises to comply with relevant laws and standards and reduce environmental risks.

In a word, there are obvious differences between environmental label product certification and environmental management system certification in the aspects of certification object, purpose, organization, standard, content and requirements, results and influence. Which authentication method to choose depends on the specific needs and goals of the enterprise or organization.
