A leaf, sprig or green swirl used on packaging with no scheme or definition behind it.
Also known as: Eco leaf, Green leaf symbol, Leaf on packaging
A green leaf on a package usually means nothing in particular. It is not a certification, no body defines it, and it exists in this catalogue precisely so that a reader who looks it up finds out that there is nothing to find.
Carries no defined meaning. No body issues it, no criteria govern it, and its presence on a package is a design decision rather than a certification.
Contexts: Packaging
Is a recognised vehicle for greenwashing: an unregulated green motif placed beside genuine certification marks borrows their credibility without making any checkable claim.
This record describes a category of unregulated motif, not any particular company's mark. Whether a specific product's use of a green motif is misleading is a question for a regulator, and nothing here asserts that any named product is misleading.
Contexts: Packaging
A single leaf or small sprig rendered in green, most often as a pointed oval with a central vein, sometimes curled into a swirl or paired with a second leaf.
