Designing Products with Material Efficiency in Mind: An Overview of the EU Ecodesign Directive and ComplyMarkets Ecodesign Workshop on Material Efficiency Standards

The European Union's Ecodesign Directive (Directive 2009/125/EC) establishes a framework to establish mandatory environmental requirements for energy-consuming and energy-related products sold in all 27 Member States. Material efficiency standards are a set of standards that allow manufacturers to design their products according to the Ecodesign Directive from the outset.

The ComplyMarket team can train your company to understand and implement the requirements of material efficiency standards. The agenda includes:

1. Introduction to Material Efficiency Eco-Design Standard.
2. Regulatory framework of material efficiency Ecodesign.
3. Improving product design in terms of material efficiency.
4. Material efficiency requirements Ecodesign standard:
