Gewährleistung von Unternehmen für falsche Nachhaltigkeitsangaben

The book addresses the question of what the applicable warranty law provides for cases of false sustainability claims. The core of the book is the presentation of numerous examples of such claims, which are examined in terms of their relevance to the quality of the purchased item. Therefore, the relevant case law of the Federal Court of Justice (BGH) is comprehensively reviewed. This is essential because some sustainability claims have a physical effect on the purchased item, but many are merely environmental relationships of the purchased item. The scope of the concept of quality is therefore extremely important for classification. Another focus lies on practical difficulties with the rights under Section 437 of the German Civil Code.
