Abstract

There is a fair amount of research on green consumption and some research specifically focused on green seals of approval (hereafter referred to as green seals). For example, there are studies on the general communication effects of green seals (D’Souza et al., 2006; D’Souza et al., 2007), their appropriateness for specific product categories (Montoro-Rios et al., 2006; Montoro-Rios et al., 2008) and their origin, standards and classification (Horne, 2009).

Since the writing of this study, the effects of more seals on new, unfamiliar brands has been studied by some of our students, with similar, that is no, results of using the green seals studied here. However, using the Fair Trade seal or EU Ecolabel did have some positive effects, implying the importance of the meaning of the seal.
