Abstract: It is known that environmental labels provide significant risk methods and competitive advantages within countries and regions, not just individual organizations or companies. European Union's environmental label application is an initiative launched to help consumers differentiate greener products and services. The EU environmental label can be provided for any service or product in areas other than food, beverages, pharmaceuticals and medicinal products. This paper aims to conduct the process of sustainability assessment of environmental laboratories to achieve 29 points to go beyond eco label standards.
