Eco-score
At Ecolinq, we believe it’s important that you know what you’re buying and what impact it has. That’s why we’ve introduced our ‘eco-score’. We calculate this score based on a number of criteria. You’ll find an explanation below. Would you like to read more about this? Then take a look at our information page
Total score
4/12
Production impact 1/2
Average impact
The production of this material requires an average amount of energy, water and/or chemicals. Its environmental impact is therefore neither low nor particularly high. This results in a score of 1 point.
Material origin 0/2
Virgin fossil-based material
This product scores 0 points because it is made from virgin fossil-based raw materials such as oil or natural gas. No recycled or renewable raw materials, such as wood or plant fibres, are used.
End-of-life route 0/2
No suitable recycling or composting route
After use, there is no suitable recycling or composting route available for this material. As a result, it cannot be effectively recovered or processed into new material. This results in a score of 0 points.
Reuse 0/2
Single-use
This product is designed for a single use and is typically thrown away after use. As it is not intended to be reused, it does not reduce the need for new packaging through repeated use. This results in a score of 0 points.
Material structure 2/2
Mono-material
This product is made from a single type of material, making it easier to sort and recycle after use. This results in a score of 2 points.
Chemical impact 0/1
Harmful or insufficiently known
This product contains substances that may be harmful to people or the environment, or whose impact is not sufficiently known. Due to this uncertainty or potential impact, 0 points are awarded.
Logistics 1/1
Produced within the EU
This product is manufactured within the European Union and therefore generally travels a shorter distance before reaching our Dutch warehouse. Due to this lower logistics impact, 1 point is awarded.
