The new EU energy label and eco design regulations became effective in 2021. As a result of Brexit, new regulations also came into place for the UK. These follow the EU very closely - except for a dedicated UK label.
A new rating system for the European energy rating label replaces the old one, lifting the demands for energy efficiency of lighting products for the benefit of all of us. The new label has a scale ranging from A to G. If the label is not printed on the part of the packaging meant to face the prospective customer, an arrow containing the letter of the energy efficiency class shall be displayed instead.
The new regulations concern the following four types of products.
1. Light sources
2. Containing products
3. Other products not part of the new regulations
What does this mean for Nordlux dealers?
It means that dealers must have provided the new labels on their websites and in stores from September 15th, 2021. Products without new energy labels could no longer be sold after March 1st, 2023.
When selling their products online, Nordlux dealers must show the energy label and the product information sheet - optionally as an embedded picture. For more detailed instructions, please see the
Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/2015 annex VII.
