stoffgruppene

StoffgruppenE is a Swedish television ratings system that categorizes television channels into groups based on their content. The system was created to provide a way to determine the suitability of television programs for different age groups.

The StoffgruppenE system consists of four main categories: 0-7, 7-12, 12-15, and 15+. Each category corresponds to a specific level of content suitability. Channels are assigned to a particular category based on their programming, with more adult-oriented content corresponding to higher category numbers.

Channels with programming geared towards young children and families fall under the 0-7 category, which includes educational and children's shows. Channels with programming aimed at pre-teens and teenagers fall under the 7-12 category, which includes a mix of children's content and light entertainment. The 12-15 category includes channels with more mature content, such as comedy shows and light drama. Channels with adult-oriented content, including explicit material and drama, are assigned to the 15+ category.

The StoffgruppenE system is used by the SVT, the Swedish public service television company, to rate its own channels and programming, as well as those of other television stations broadcasting in Sweden. The system is also used to provide guidance to parents and viewers about the content of television programs.

The StoffgruppenE system has been in use since the 1990s and has been revised and updated over the years to reflect changes in television programming and viewer preferences. It remains an important part of the Swedish television ratings system and continues to provide a way for viewers to understand the content of television programs.
