Product testing and market surveillance - opportunities for an effective exchange system
30. 04. 2013
Energy labelling and ecodesign are a crucial driver for market transformation, orienting consumers’ choice towards more energy efficient appliances. Unfortunately, not all EU Member States apply effective actions for controlling the correct labelling implementation and product compliance. The Come On Labels project therefore has analysed the question of information and test results exchange among Member States and related bodies, in order to draw some recommendations to be shared. The main goal of this document is to collect available information and practices about the sharing of surveillance activities at EU and Member States level, and to describe the recently published Product Safety and Market Surveillance Package that includes new recommendations and obligations for market surveillance authorities.
