Challenges• Legal

• Do the demands meet the local legal demands • Voluntarily contra compulsory

• Ethical• Working hours in COC contra workers demand (fx China)

• Environmental• How to make the producer see the advantages by investing in the

environment if customers only focus on price• Price

• The price will be higher as only producers with good machines, systems, chemicals, skilled workforce can obtain fx Ecolabel

• Limited knowledge about the labels• Competitors do not know what is behind the label and inform that they can

require easily

Experience with the proces of ECO-label

• Use external consultant to help with the process– When: If no chemical engineer / person with similar qualifications

employed in the company– Why: Speak same language – chemical engineer to chemical engineer– What: Help producer to get correct information - understand the

demands from Ecolabel and producer– Why: Ecolabel will ask one time and expect information to be given

• Visit to Eco label Denmark – you and your consultant• Participate in audits by supplier • Involve yourself in the process to secure progress (ask Ecolabel about

status, progress, offer help if needed)• If possible participate when f.x new criteria is made

Experience with participation of public tender

• Where do we meet it?- Hospitals, elderly homes, other public institutions where they use flat linen.

• Until today, no specific requirements of eco labelling

• What is there to gain from implementing eco label requirements in a public tender.
