Sustainable Products

Basic information

Sustainability concerns about the way we produce and consume are becoming more pressing by the day. Humanity’s ecological footprint is estimated to be around 1,6 planet Earths and growing, with around 60% of it accounted for by carbon emissions. Products and production processes must become more sustainable and circular to fit within planetary boundaries. Eurovent favours a sensible regulatory framework that harmonises requirements for products’ energy performance and lifetime environmental impacts and helps close the loop on productive cycles.
