Benefits of being an Energy Saving Recommended retailer

The Energy Saving Recommended logo appears on products from fridges to integrated digital TVs and is a guarantee that the product is the most energy efficient in its category, it will cost less to run and it will help to prevent climate change. Only the top 20 per cent of products on the market can carry the symbol so it's a clear indicator of excellence.

Only the best products are Energy Saving Recommended. Half of all shoppers know that the logo means they can trust the product. And four out of five shoppers are aware that it signifies the best in class for energy efficiency and quality.
