Information and Labels Sample Clauses

Information and Labels. The last common theme covered in various studies is the want for information about bio- based products by consumers. Xxxxxx and Xxxxx (2017) state that most participants were interested in information about bio-based products, while Karachaliou et al. (2017) report a general lack of information about bio-based products. Most participants thought that information on the benefits of bio-based products are not readily available. Participants even mentioned the lack of information as a barrier for not consuming more bio-based products. Xxxxx et al. (2017) report that most participants require reliable evidence about the eco- friendliness over the whole life-cycle of the bio-based products. Topics that were found to be of specific interest or relatively unimportant to participants are shown in Table 4. Table 4: Information requirements: topics of specific interest or relative unimportance. Based on: Xxxxxxx et al. 2015; Xxxxx 2016; Xxxxxx and Xxxxx 2017; Xxxxxxxxxxx et al. 2017; Xxxxx et al. 2017; Xxxxxxx et al. 2017 Topics of specific information interest Topics appearing relatively unimportant Product information  Properties  Health impact  Production  Environmental effects Product information  Functionalities  Social impact Info on disposal  Recyclability  Biodegradability  Compostability Info on resources  Bio-based share  Raw materials used  Whether the resources are organic Info on resources  Agricultural land area needed for resource production  Use of GMOs during resource production Additional to information wants or requirements, some studies mentioned the use of labels to fulfil these needs. Three studies addressed the effect that labels had. Xxxxxxx (2015) describe that bio-based products with a label were preferred over conventional products and bio-based products without a label. They recommend to producers of bio-based products to differentiate their products on the market through a label. Additionally, Xxxxx (2016) found that informing participants via a label had a greater effect on WTP than textual information. They argue that the information is conveyed in an easily understandable way and that a label (even an unknown one) establishes trust and credibility. Karachaliou (2017) report that 65.7% of participants agreed that clear certification and labelling of bio-based products would facilitate the growth of the bio-based market. Rumm et al. (2013) developed labels themselves and tested them on consumers. They found that participan...

Information and Labels. Most participants thought that information on the benefits of bio-based products is not readily available. Participants even mentioned the lack of information on these benefits as a barrier for not consuming more bio-based products. This need for differentiated information, however, is contradictory to the need for simplicity stated in other contexts. Labels were mentioned as being more effective to present detailed information than textual information. A multitude of ecolabels exists in Europe. The strongest type of ecolabel is the one that is voluntary, multiple-criteria based, and third party operated (i.e. ISO 14024 type I) (Xxxx and Xxxxxx 2015). Few of the ecolabels are specific enough for most bio-based products. There are three Type I ecolabels that cover specific product categories that include bio-based products: the EU Ecolabel (symbolised by the flower), the Nordic Ecolabel (from the Nordic countries) and the Xxxx Xxxxx ecolabel (from Germany). There is no ecolabel that was developed purposely for bio-based products. Creating such a label would be a costly exercise, after which it may take a very long time before a label is known to consumers, if ever. It seems doubtful that those labels focussing specifically on the fact that a product is bio-based (these do exist, without a focus on environmental aspects) would be convincing for a general public, since many participants were not convinced purely by the fact that a product was bio-based. It is seen merely as an added value next to other product properties and impacts. Consequently, these purely ‘bio-based’ labels are mostly used in the B2B context as of today. When presented mock-ups of self-developed labels, participants preferred information directly on a product label over the possibility to search for further details on the internet5 (Rumm et al. 2013). The label should give information about altruistic motives like environmental protection or resource conservation, and about the origin of the raw materials. The termrenewable resources” is preferred above “bio-based” and the term "sustainability" should be avoided. Finally, attributes that are of personal benefit for the consumer should be advertised.
Information and Labels. A product being bio-based is just part of the story. Telling the story works better with a label than with a text. A label presenting information about the product must not be a label for bio- based, but tell the entire story. The label should give information about the attributes that are of personal benefit for the consumer, about altruistic motives like environmental protection or resource conservation, and about the origin of the raw materials. It is contradictory, and therefore a challenge, that consumers indicate they want to be informed, but when it comes to putting effort in to informing themselves this switches to easily available information, such as a (“simple”) label.
