Navigating Green Claims in Europe: Where Are We in 2026?

From September 27, 2026, EU Member States must apply the new Greenwashing Directive. The new rules will significantly strengthen consumer protection against greenwashing across the bloc. Businesses need to take the time now to make sure their advertising claims are compliant.

On Thursday February 5 at 14:00 GMT, join experts from Covington & Burling’s Brussels and London offices to discuss Europe’s upcoming green claims landscape, including:

• Key provisions of the Greenwashing Directive and the European Commission’s Guidance on the Directive.
• Updates on national legislation implementing the Greenwashing Directive and relevant guidance in key EU Member States.
• Recent anti-greenwashing enforcement trends in the EU and selected Member States.
• The wider green claims regulatory landscape in the United Kingdom.
• Potential future developments and important points to watch for businesses.
