European Union with new energy label, Gorenje’s products rank high on the new scale

From 1st of March, all the shops and online retailers in European Union apply new energy label. There have been some significant changes, aiming to simplify the system for the customers and to help them cut their energy bills, but also to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Stricter scale and QR code leading to EPREL database

The new label currently applies to four main categories: fridges and freezers, dishwashers, washing machines, and television sets. Other product categories will follow soon. The simplified and stricter scale A-G scale will be much clearer for the customers, as it will exclude the classes with “+”. Besides the new efficiency ranking, the new label will introduce a special QR code that will provide a direct link to EPREL (European Product Registry for Energy Labelling) database, where the customer will find detailed information about the product.

The emphasis on customer’s rights

In addition to the updated energy label, European Union has also adopted new rules regarding ecodesign that came into force on the 1st of March as well. From now on, the manufacturers or the importers are obliged to provide spare parts to professional repairers at least 7-10 years after the last unit of a model has been placed on the EU market. They also need to make certain of these pieces available to end-users several years after a product is taken off the market.

Gorenje with highly efficient products

Gorenje’s core values reflect in highly efficient home appliances. Sustainable development and user’s friendly solutions lead to products that rank very high on the new EU scale. Best Gorenje’s washing machines and tumble dryers rank as class A on the A-G scale, while the winners in the category of refrigerators and dishwashers correspond to class C on the same scale. Other products, like ovens, will be added to the list as soon as the new label will be applicable for a wider range of appliances.
