Many of our everyday items that are currently for sale contain plasticizers, microplastics and many other ingredients that are harmful to the environment and health. As a result, more and more people are looking for sustainable alternatives that respect and protect people and the environment.

NCP (Nature Care Product Standard) provides a simple environmental label for everyday items. The label is designed for all non-food products made from renewable raw materials, such as detergents, cleaning products, hygiene products, care products for objects, toys, candles or fertilizers that are made from natural ingredients and do not unnecessarily harm the environment.

This certification closes the regulatory gap in the ecological non-food sector, defining necessary standards for truly sustainable natural products for the first time.

NCP-certified products meet the highest quality standards due to the thorough product testing: for example, that they are made of natural sourced materials, preferably in organic quality. With the label, you can advertise your natural products and offer consumers the opportunity to recognize and choose a sustainable product.

For natural cosmetics, GfaW offers the NCS standard .
