Good news from the standardisation front: we are pleased to report on the positive formal votes on two standards: method to assess the durability (EN 45552) and method to assess the proportion of recycled content (EN 45557) of energy related products.
ECOS is looking for a subcontractor under the Action Grant N° ENER/C4/SGA-2019-486, the subject of the action is the support to environmental and consumer interests for participating in Technical Committees and Working Groups on Standardisation in the framework of the partnership with ECOS aimed at promoting and improving the inclusiveness of environmental interests in European standardisation activities.
