DIN EN 16751:2016-06EN 16751:2016 (E) 5 Introduction Bio-
20、based products from forestry and agriculture have a long history of application, such as paper, board and various chemicals and materials. The last decades have seen the emergence of new bio-based products in the market. Some of the reasons for this increased interest lie in the bio-based products b
21、enefits in relation to the depletion of fossil resources and climate change. Bio-based products may also provide additional product functionalities. This has triggered a wave of innovation with the development of knowledge and technologies allowing new transformation processes and product developmen
22、t. Acknowledging the need for common standards for bio-based products, the European Commission issued mandate M/4921), resulting in a series of standards developed by CEN/TC 411, with a focus on bio-based products other than food, feed and biomass for energy applications. The standards of CEN/TC 411
23、 “Bio-based products” provide a common basis on the following aspects: Common terminology; Bio-based content determination; Life Cycle Assessment (LCA); Sustainability aspects; Declaration tools. It is important to understand what the term bio-based product covers and how it is being used. The term
24、bio-based means derived from biomass. Bio-based products (bottles, insulation materials, wood and wood products, paper, solvents, chemical intermediates, composite materials, et cetera) are products which are wholly or partly derived from biomass. It is essential to characterize the amount of biomas
25、s contained in the product by for instance its bio-based content or bio-based carbon content. The bio-based content of a product does not provide information on its environmental impact or sustainability, which may be assessed through LCA and sustainability criteria. In addition, transparent and una
26、mbiguous communication within bio-based value chains is facilitated by a harmonized framework for certification and declaration. This European Standard has been developed with the aim to identify sustainability aspects applicable to all bio-based products, covering all three pillars of sustainabilit
27、y (environmental, social and economic). Though the scope of CEN/TC 411 excludes food, feed and energy, sustainability of biomass and bio-based products should follow the same principles irrespective of their use. All LCA-related topics are covered by EN 16760 Bio-based products - Life Cycle Assessme
28、nt. The concept of Sustainable Development expresses the shared concerns about the state and sustainability of environmental, economic and social dimensions of today and tomorrows world. The journey towards sustainability finds sustainable production and consumption at its very heart. It also relate
29、s to the social responsibility of organizations and the objective to improve social and environmental performances along with sustained economic profitability all in the perspective to contribute notably to greater human well-being. The criteria of this European Standard can either be directly used
30、by an operator or can be used in proprietary schemes and standards which cover sustainability aspects. 1) A Mandate is a standardization task embedded in European trade laws. M/492 Mandate is addressed to the European Standardization bodies, CEN, CENELEC and ETSI, for the development of horizontal E
31、uropean Standards for bio-based products. DIN EN 16751:2016-06 EN 16751:2016 (E) 6 By defining a common framework, this European Standard will allow the provision of information on sustainability aspects for the following uses: for an economic operator to communicate along the supply chain on the su
32、stainability aspects of the biomass used as input to the bio-based product; for an economic operator to assess and manage sustainability aspects of its operation, and to report in a consistent manner along the supply chain; for economic operators in a supply chain (see Figure 1 below) to exchange an
33、d share information on the sustainability aspects of the processes and bio-based products with a common framework and understanding (B2B communication); and for a programme operator to develop certification schemes to assess the sustainability of the biomass used as input to the bio-based products o
34、r of the bio-based part of the bio-based product. NOTE This European Standard refers to the bio-based part of products only. Without the use of relevant product standards it is not possible to make a claim for the whole product. The way indicators are addressed will differ according to the use. Figu
35、re 1 illustrates the scope of this European Standard. Figure 1 Illustration of the scope of this European Standard DIN EN 16751:2016-06 EN 16751:2016 (E) 7 1 Scope This European Standard sets horizontal sustainability criteria applicable to the bio-based part of all bio-based products, excluding foo
36、d, feed and energy, covering all three pillars of sustainability; environmental, social and economic aspects. If the product is partly bio-based, this European Standard can only be used for the bio-based part since it does not address non-bio-based (fossil, mineral) parts of a product. This European
37、 Standard can be used for two applications; either to provide sustainability information about the biomass production only or to provide sustainability information in the supply chain for the bio-based part of the bio-based product. This European Standard sets a framework to provide information on m
38、anagement of sustainability aspects. This European Standard cannot be used to make claims that operations or products are sustainable since it does not establish thresholds or limits. This European Standard can however be used for business-to-business (B2B) communication or for developing product sp
