The Keyhole label: what does it mean?

The Keyhole (Nøkkelhullet) is the official nutrition label that helps you choose healthier within a product group. Skaren shows you Keyhole products and much more when you scan the barcode.

What is the Keyhole label?

The Keyhole is an official labelling scheme in Norway, Sweden and Denmark. A green keyhole on the packaging means the product is among the healthier ones in its category, with less sugar and salt, healthier or less fat, and often more fibre and whole grains.

The label makes it quicker to compare within the same product group. But it doesn't say everything, two Keyhole products can still differ. That's where Skaren helps, with a full overview.
