Declaration and labelling in Denmark
You have the right to know the manufacture date of the foodstuffs you buy as well as their
storage life. There are several schemes for the labelling and control of foodstuffs. For
example, this may be a guarantee that a product has been organically manufactured.
Non-foodstuff products are labelled to show whether they are environment-friendly or
energy-efficient, for example.
ط-mوrket (the Danish ط-label)
The ط-mوrket (the Danish ط label) is used in connection with foodstuffs and plants. The
Danish ط-label indicates that the product is guaranteed by state-control to be organic in
origin. This means that no pesticides have been used in the production process, with a few
exceptions such as sulphur, for example. Artificial fertlizer is prohibited if at least 80% of
pet fodder is organic.
