Topten.eu is Europe’s leading product comparison site focussing on energy efficiency, featuring a wide range of consumer and professional electronics covered by Energy Labelling requirements, including TVs, vacuum cleaners, washing machines, domestic refrigeration but also professional refrigeration.
True is pleased to announce that several of our most energy-efficient products are listed on Topten.eu under the Storage Refrigerators, Storage Freezers and Vertical Display Cabinets categories.
The products listed on Topten.eu are the best on the European market in terms of reducing electrical consumption, a common goal for many organisations with targets around improving their sustainability and reducing their carbon footprint.
Topten.eu supports manufacturers, policy makers, experts and researchers in their work regarding European product policy, most notably Energy Labels and Ecodesign requirements, and since 2009 has been supported by the European Climate Foundation.
Rather than having to search on different manufacturer and distributor websites to find and compare product specifications, Topten.eu collects information in a single place so consumers can easily research and compare various product types from multiple brands, choosing an energy-efficient model that suits their needs.
By default, product categories are sorted by energy use with the most efficient/least consuming products listed at the top (typically the smallest products). Each page also includes various refiners help consumers compare by a specific type, net volume or running cost.
One of Topten.eu’s most useful features is an indicative running cost per product (in Euros) based on eight years of use – not something which is stated on Energy Labels or typically found in monetary terms on other sites.

Other countries are encouraging businesses to invest in new assets in an attempt to boost spending after the financial fallout of the Coronavirus pandemic in 2020.
