Member logo use
Selecting the right logo
Use this guide to choose the logo that suits your certification status, membership level, marketing/selling region, or specific designation (e.g., France-based members, Impact Partners).
Below, you will also find guidance on EU compliance, including new logos that meet ECGT-Directive Standards. Please note that you may use these logos only after completing one full fiscal year of certification. New members can review specific onboarding guidance below.
Are you a new member who hasn’t completed certification yet?
Prior to completing your first certification, you may use our primary brand logos on your website and social media to communicate affiliation and commitment. However, note that the primary logo must be accompanied by an explanation of your status within the same field of vision as the primary logo.
e.g., “We have committed to give back 1% of our annual sales to vetted and approved impact partners. Our first certification will take place after our current fiscal year ends, [Fall 2027].”
Wait to add our 1% for the Planet certified business or product logo to your products, packaging and marketing materials until after your first certification. This is essential for ECGT compliance.
