  • ECOS newsletter – July 2025

    The European Standardisation Regulation holds strategic importance for ECOS and is now under revision. Watch this space, as the public consultation is expected in the coming weeks. In other news, we have a new European standard for testing the durability of washing machines and we also discuss ‘the big question’ - what kinds of hydrogen now qualify as ‘low-carbon’ in the EU?

  • European standards: Inclusive, fit for purpose, and environmentally ambitious

    In our response to the call for evidence on the revision of the EU's Standardisation Regulation, ECOS provides valuable insight on the main challenges within the European Standardisation System, both directly experienced as a stakeholder and those identified in the EC’s evaluation report. We also propose improvements to address these challenges.
