Why are quality seals important?

There are many types of quality seals, for example, the bio-seal for food items which are grown ‘biologically’, which means without the use of chemicals. The Fair-Trade seal is often found on coffee or cocoa. Fair-Trade implies that people involved in the production of these products have also received an appropriate share of the profit. The FSC-logo marks the wood coming from forests, which are not damaged by cutting the wood. By purchasing the products marked with quality seals, we can support the idea of handling nature with care. We can help protect the environment by buying products with quality seals.
