With 62 global laboratories focused on ErP, we are uniquely positioned to deliver ErP compliance solutions that are easy to understand, simple in their delivery and are sensitive to your cost concerns.As of November 20, 2009 the Eco-Design Directive EuP was replaced with the new energy-related products directive (ErP) 2009/125/EC. The old Eco-Design Directive for energy using products only covered products that were using energy such as a microwave, washing machine or a television. The new ErP-Directive covers products under the old EuP Directive as well as products that are energy-related and do not directly use energy such as such as double glazing windows, taps and showerheads.
According to the European Commission the definition of an energy-related product is; “any goods having an impact on energy consumption during use". Energy-related products include all energy-using products, plus energy-saving products such as windows and some water-using domestic devices, which can reduce water consumption and therefore the amount of energy needed to heat water. The ErP Directive will be implemented in each EU member country starting November 20, 2010. The European Commission has not yet come up with a product list for the new Directive and the final text of the Directive is still to be published in the EU's Official Journal.
