What is BIS Eco Mark Certification?
The BIS Eco Mark is a voluntary environmental label awarded to products that meet specific ecological criteria across their entire lifecycle — from raw material extraction and manufacturing to use and disposal. It is India's official eco-label, recognised by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change.
Eco Mark certification helps businesses demonstrate environmental responsibility, differentiate products in sustainability-conscious markets, and meet the growing demand from institutional buyers for green-certified goods.
Why this certification matters
- India's official eco-label backed by BIS and MoEFCC
- Differentiates products in green procurement and retail
- Meets institutional and government buyer sustainability requirements
- Reduces regulatory risk as environmental norms tighten
- Supports CSR and ESG reporting objectives
