Norway’s Environmental Regulations and Arctic Climate Packaging Standards​

Norway’s Environmental Regulations and Arctic Climate Packaging Standards​

Norway implements EU standards with additional environmental requirements through the Norwegian Environment Agency. All imports must comply with “Miljøforskrifter” (Environmental Regulations), with packaging needing environmental declarations. Electrical products require “Elektro-sikkerhet” (Electrical Safety) certification from Nemko.​

Arctic climate packaging is essential, with materials tested to -30°C for northern regions. Insulated packaging must maintain product integrity for 72 hours at -25°C. Plastic packaging must contain 50% recycled content and be marked with Norwegian recycling codes (“Genbruksmerke”). Food packaging displays “Næringsinnhold” (Nutritional Information) in Norwegian with “Utløpsdato” (Expiry Date). Wooden packaging must be 100% FSC-certified with Norwegian Forestry Service documentation.
