IBO - <strong>Environmental</strong> <strong>and</strong> Health <strong>related</strong> Criteria <strong>for</strong> Buildings<br />

Draft Order relating to the labelling of construction products with their volatile pollutant<br />

emissions (Arrêté)<br />

- Methods <strong>for</strong> the characterisation of emissions : EN ISO 16000 parts 9, 10 <strong>and</strong> 11<br />

- Methods <strong>for</strong> sampling <strong>and</strong> analyses : ISO 16000 parts 6 <strong>and</strong> 3<br />

- Emission scenarios : reference room defined by CEN TC351, WG2, document N 124<br />

(12 m 2 , 30 m 3 )<br />

Building <strong>and</strong> decoration products may only be placed on the market if their emissions of<br />

CMR compounds are below 1 µg.m -3 after 28 days. Additionally 4 emission classes have<br />

been defined in Draft Order <strong>for</strong> the m<strong>and</strong>atory labelling of emissions. Table 28 shows the<br />

corresponding limit values <strong>for</strong> specified substances.<br />

Ecolabels <strong>for</strong> building products <strong>and</strong> green public procurement<br />

The following chapter shall give an idea of the regulations concerning the use <strong>and</strong> emission<br />

of hazardous substances in ecolabels <strong>and</strong> green public procurement systems (referred to as<br />

product assessment systems). The m<strong>and</strong>atory labeling in France based on the “Grenelle de<br />

l’environnement” <strong>and</strong> the AgBB assessment scheme in Germany can also be accounted to<br />
