Nordic Ecolabelling is revising the criteria for de-icers. We invite you to comment on our proposal no later than May 28th, 2023.
The most important changes are:
- Requirements for the classification of ingoing substances (O4) (see in particular the definition of ingoing substances and pollutants on page 11).
- The tightened limit value for chlorine (O8).
- The list of prohibited substances (O10); is there any substance on the list that lacks relevance?
- The new efficiency requirement; both the test methods and the limit values (O12).
- The packaging requirements regarding recycled material and design for recycling (O14-O15).
