Label Gallery
The new energy labels are designed to be easier to understand for the consumer, compared to the old label, to help customers make better purchasing choices. The new measurements on the labels will be based on ‘real-life’ household usage, considering aspects like frequently used programmes and average capacities.
All products subject to the new labelling (dishwashers, washing machines, washer dryers, fridges and freezers and wine storage) will share some common features:
- Simple A-G scale. A+++/A+ will no longer exist
- QR-Code in the upper right corner linking to a data base, accessing product’s specifications.
- Energy consumption of the model now more prominently in middle section of the label.
- All products will be awarded a rating for noise from A-D.
- Pictograms on bottom of label characterising product features. Some are the same as in the old label, a few are new or have been revised to reflect new testing or measurement methods.
