Ecolabelling - EU
Enters into force - 31 December 2016
Decision (EU) 2016/1332 revises ecological criteria for furniture and extends the scope of the product group to include non-wooden furniture. Decision (EU) 2016/1332 replaces existing criteria on wooden furniture established under Decision 2009/894/EC. Where a qualifying product satisfies these criteria it may be awarded the EU Ecolabel. These revised criteria will apply for six years from 31 December 2016. Existing licences for wooden furniture remain valid until 28 July 2017.
