Background on the topic
This Standard addresses the topic of product and service information labeling and marketing communications. This includes customer access to accurate and adequate information on the positive and negative economic, environmental, and social impacts of the products and services they consume – both from a product and service labeling and a marketing communications perspective.
Fair and responsible marketing communications, as well as access to information about the composition of products, and their proper use and disposal, can help customers to make informed choices. These concepts are covered in key instruments of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development: see the Bibliography.
