Guidelines for the Inclusion of Environmental Aspects in Product Standards

Abstract
The guidelines provide participants in product standardisation with practical advice and instructions on how to include environmental aspects in product standards. Product standards can influence a product's environmental impact in different ways. These and the existing tools in the area are described and examples are given on how product standards can help to reduce the environmental impacts of products.

The Danish Environmental Protection Agency will, when opportunity offers, publish reports and contributions relating to environmental research and development projects financed via the Danish EPA.

Please note that publication does not signify that the contents of the reports necessarily reflect the views of the Danish EPA.

The reports are, however, published because the Danish EPA finds that the studies represent a valuable contribution to the debate on environmental policy in Denmark.
