High-level summary
Definitions from the Empowering Consumers Directive relevant to environmental claims, durability, certification schemes, and green-transition marketing language.

Who it affects

- Marketing, legal, and compliance teams reviewing green claims
- Teams connecting traceability evidence to customer-facing communications
