CEN/TS 16822:2015

Textiles and textile products - Self-declared environmental claims - Use of the terms

This Technical Specification establishes guidelines for the development and use of self-declared environmental claims for textiles (e.g. fibres, yarns, fabrics), textile products (e.g. clothing) and textile components of products (e.g. upholstery fabric in furniture), which includes principles, methodology and rules for some terms commonly used in environmental claims.
This Technical Specification does not provide any substitute for any legal requirements applicable to textile products, related to environmental information, environmental claims or labelling, or any other legal requirement.

Textilien und textile Erzeugnisse - Umweltbezogene Anbietererklärung - Verwendung von Begriffen

Diese Technische Spezifikation legt Leitlinien für die Entwicklung und Verwendung umweltbezogener Anbietererklärungen für Textilien (z. B. Fasern, Garne, Flächengebilde), Textilprodukte (z. B. Bekleidung) und textile Produktteile (z. B. Polsterstoff bei Möbeln) fest, die die Grundlagen, Methodik und Vorschriften für einige, in Umwelterklärungen üblicherweise verwendete Begriffe einschließt.
Diese Technische Spezifikation bietet keinen Ersatz für irgendwelche, auf Textilprodukte anwendbare gesetzliche Anforderungen, die sich auf Umweltinformationen, Umweltaussagen oder Umweltkennzeichnungen oder auf eine sonstige gesetzliche Anforderung beziehen.

Textiles et produits textiles - Autodéclarations environnementales - Utilisation des termes

La présente Spécification technique établit des lignes directrices concernant l’élaboration et l’utilisation d’autodéclarations environnementales relatives aux textiles (par exemple, fibres, fils, étoffes), aux produits textiles (par exemple, vêtements) et aux composants de produits (par exemple, tissus d’ameublement). Ces lignes directrices regroupent des principes, une méthodologie et des règles relatifs à certains termes couramment employés dans les déclarations environnementales.
La présente Spécification technique ne saurait se substituer à toute exigence légale applicable aux produits textiles, relative aux informations, aux déclarations et aux marquages environnementaux, ou à toute autre exigence légale.

Tekstilije in tekstilni izdelki - Okoljsko samodeklariranje - Uporaba izrazov

Ta tehnična specifikacija določa smernice za razvoj in uporabo okoljskega samodeklariranja za tekstilne izdelke, ki vključujejo načela, metodologijo in pravila za nekatere izraze, ki se pogosto uporabljajo v okoljskih deklaracijah za tekstilne izdelke. Ta tehnična specifikacija ne nadomešča zakonskih zahtev za tekstilne izdelke, povezanih z okoljskimi informacijami, deklaracijami ali označevanjem, ali drugih veljavnih zakonskih zahtev. Namen te tehnične specifikacije je zagotoviti trdno podlago, da bi bilo mogoče boljše razumeti nekatere uporabljene izraze ter nato izbrati tekstilne izdelke, ki so najbolj okolju prijazni, in opozoriti strokovnjake v tekstilni panogi, zlasti iz malih in srednje velikih podjetij, na načela odkritosrčnega in natančnega okoljskega deklariranja.
