EmpCo-Prüfung: A Compliance Checker for Shop Claims
A German-language tool that scans online-shop product pages for potentially risky environmental claims under the EU EmpCo rules.
Field notes
The checker accepts a shop, individual product page, product text, or file, then evaluates environmental language together with its surrounding wording. Its published methodology lists ten rules and cites Directive (EU) 2024/825, including cases involving compensation-based climate claims, unverified seals, irrelevant benefits, sustainability comparisons, and repairability promises. The page identifies the rule set as version 0.2.3 and states that up to ten product pages can be checked without registration.
