The ecological transition undertaken at the European level has shifted the use of environmental claims from a declarative register to a legal and economic one.
As part of the Green Deal, the European Union has strengthened the requirements for environmental communications to prevent misleading practices and ensure the comparability, verifiability, and fairness of the information disseminated.
Directive (EU) 2024/825 on environmental claims is part of this approach and strictly regulates the use of any claim relating to environmental performance, benefits, or commitments.

In this context, the content published on this site is structured according to a clear distinction between the different levels of intervention.
Commitment is the responsibility of the project leaders.
Evaluation consists of analyzing a situation or approach based on defined criteria.
Certification corresponds to a formalized process, governed by rules of impartiality, leading, where applicable, to legally binding recognition.
Finally, communication can only occur in accordance with the actual status of the project and the level of evidence effectively established.

IRICE ensures that its editorial, methodological, and institutional content strictly adheres to this separation of roles.

All claims are presented in a proportionate, contextualized manner and are contingent upon verifiable evidence.
