23、of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-government

31、several approaches to environmental labelling. This document relates to Type I environmental labelling programmes, which award their environmental label to products that meet a set of predetermined requirements. The label identifies products that are determined to be environmentally preferable withi
32、n a particular product category.Type I environmental labelling programmes are voluntary, can be operated by public or private agencies and can be national, regional or international in nature.vi ISO 2018 All rights reservedBS EN ISO 14024:2018Environmental labels and declarations - Type I environmen
