ISO 14046 Testing of Industrial Products for Natureplus Label Requirements: Eurolabs Laboratory Testing Service

The ISO 14046 testing service provided by Eurolab is governed by a range of international and national standards that ensure the accuracy, reliability, and consistency of the results. Some of the key standards include:

  • ISO 14046:2014, which specifies the principles and framework for environmental declaration of products
  • EN ISO 14044:2006, which provides guidelines for life cycle assessment (LCA) studies
  • ASTM D6769-13, which outlines a procedure for calculating the carbon footprint of products
  • TSE 1768:2015, which sets out requirements for environmental declarations in Turkey
  • These standards are developed and maintained by standard development organizations such as:

  • International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
  • European Committee for Standardization (CEN)
  • American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)
  • The evolution of these standards is a continuous process, with updates and revisions made to reflect changes in technology, scientific understanding, and regulatory requirements. For example, the latest version of ISO 14046 (2014) supersedes the previous edition (2009).

    The ISO 14046 testing service is required by various industries and sectors, including:

  • Manufacturing, where products need to meet environmental sustainability targets
  • Construction, where buildings must comply with energy efficiency regulations
  • Transportation, where vehicles require certification for emissions standards
  • Chemical industry, where substances need to be assessed for their environmental impact
  • The consequences of not performing this test can be severe, including:

  • Non-compliance with regulatory requirements
  • Loss of market access and revenue
  • Damage to reputation and brand value
  • Environmental harm and liability
  • The risk factors associated with not testing products according to ISO 14046 include:

  • Inadequate product safety and performance
  • Unreliable environmental claims and marketing
  • Non-compliance with industry-specific regulations
  • Exposure to regulatory fines and penalties
  • The ISO 14046 testing service involves a range of laboratory procedures, including:

    1. Sample preparation: Collection, storage, and handling of samples for analysis

    2. Instrument calibration: Ensuring the accuracy and precision of measurement instruments

    3. Data collection: Gathering data on product characteristics, usage patterns, and environmental impacts

    4. Analysis and calculation: Applying mathematical models to calculate carbon footprint, emissions, and resource consumption

    Eurolabs testing equipment and facilities meet the highest standards for accuracy and reliability, including:

  • Mass spectrometry instruments for precise analysis of chemical composition
  • Gas chromatography systems for separation and identification of volatile compounds
  • High-performance computing infrastructure for data processing and modeling
  • The testing environment is carefully controlled to ensure consistency and repeatability, with requirements for:

  • Temperature: 20C 2C
  • Humidity: 50 10
  • Pressure: 1013 mbar 5
  • The results of the ISO 14046 testing service are documented and reported in accordance with international standards, including:

  • ISO 14024:2018, which outlines requirements for type I environmental declarations
  • EN 15804:2012, which provides guidelines for EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) reporting
  • The report format includes:

  • Executive summary: Overview of key findings and conclusions
  • Methodology description: Explanation of testing procedures and methods used
  • Results presentation: Data analysis and interpretation, including charts and graphs
  • Conclusion and recommendations: Summary of implications for product design, marketing, and compliance
  • The benefits of performing the ISO 14046 testing service include:

  • Risk assessment and mitigation: Identifying potential environmental impacts and minimizing risks
