GREEN BRANDS awards – in international cooperation with independent institutions and companies in the environmental/climate protection and sustainability sector – ecologically sustainable brands (companies / products / service providers / food / associations) and awards the GREEN BRAND Quality Seal.

With this award and the quality seal, which is a registered EU certification mark for ecological sustainability, brands with a proven commitment to conserving the environment, climate, nature, biodiversity and natural resources are honoured.
