Packaging
The aim of the Regulation for energy consumption labeling EU 874/2012 (Lighting 1194/2012) is to promote the most effective products on the basis of information requirements. It stipulates, among other things, that a labeling which states the energy consumption of the lamp on the packaging must be present in the distribution of the lamp at a point of sale.
This requirement is met by DINAM with the imprint of energy labeling on the packaging.
New energy efficiency classes
The Energy Efficiency Index (EEI) has been extended to allow today and in the future, that at even more efficient light bulbs classes A + and A + + can be used, while the old classes F and G vanish. There is also the possibility that at a later date, the Class A + + + will be introduced.
