Buy consciously!
Do you read information on product packaging? When choosing soap or washing liquid, do you compare the ingredients and additional functional elements? Can you dose the amount of fabric softener correctly? The answers to these questions can be found on the labels of our products. It is worth reading them to know what temperature to store products at, what the expiration date is or how to recycle the packaging. Knowing the meaning of the pictograms on packaging is green intelligence!
For all inquiring consumers, the following list of pictograms has been created. All of them can be found on the packaging of our brand products: Kret, Bobini, Apart, Sofin, Biophen and IZO.
Dr. Miele Cosmed Group S.A. cosmetics and household chemistry products stand for quality, responsible manufacture and green packaging. Another important issue is solid communication, so we encourage you to read the list and make a conscious choice!
Certificates / practical application
 |
The ECOCERT quality mark is synonymous with prestige and credibility. It is awarded by independent Institutions and supported by a detailed audit.
Product quality assessment includes its ingredients, production and packaging. In the COSMOS standard, what is important is the strict ban on the use of ingredients, technologies and processes in the production process that may negatively affect human health and the natural environment in any way. The EcoLabel certificate works in a similar way – it confirms that a product is environmentally friendly. |

Microplastics are solid, small particles (less than 5 mm in size), insoluble in water and non-biodegradable.
In the cosmetics industry, microplastic is used as a thickener, exfoliating, cleansing, opacifying, texturising, illuminating and tactile-improving agent. Microplastics are also formed as a result of slow degeneration of plastics, e.g. PET bottles. They get into the waters and there they can be swallowed by virtually any animal ? from zooplankton to whales. Accumulated plastic microparticles in the human body increase the risk of e.g. allergies, cancer or many other diseases. |
