Participating in the criteria development process
If you would like to participate, you can join open working group sessions to provide your input.
If you would like to participate in the criteria development process, either in an individual capacity or as an organization, you can do so by signing up for our open working group sessions.
In accordance with guiding principle 5.9 of the ISO 14024 for Type 1 Ecolabelling: "Formal open participation process for selection and review of product categories, environmental criteria, and product function characteristics" - Participation in our working groups is open to everyone and free.
In the criteria development process, we treat everyone as equals, however, the final decision regarding which criteria becomes part of the certification and in what form rests with TCO Development and the SDIA.
This is important to ensure that the resulting certification recognizes the top-performing suppliers in the market - who outperform on environmental and social issues and raise the bar for others to follow.
