ISO 14006:2011

 The ISO 14006:2011 Environmental Management Systems – Guidelines for Incorporating Ecodesign - aims to help organizations establish, document, implement, maintain and continually improve their management of ecodesign as part of an environmental management system (EMS). It applies to those environmental aspects of an organization’s products and/or services over which it has control or influence.

Integrating ecodesign into product development offers advantages such as:

•     Economic benefits, e.g. through increased competitiveness, cost reduction and attraction of financing and investments
•     Promotion of innovation and creativity, and identification of new business models
•    Reduction in liability through reduced environmental impacts and improved product knowledge
•     Improved public image
•     Enhancement of employee motivation

ISO 14006:2011 is said to be applicable to any organization, irrespective of their size, geographical location, culture, or complexity of their management systems, and no matter how simple or complex the product or service.
