Questionnaire for workshop participants - EU Ecolabel Marketing for ...

� C. Technical Workshop in the sector of textiles
The workshop took place at Hotel Oscar, Athens at 26th of September 2007, 5:00 –
8:00 pm. The philosophy of the program formulation was based on the idea that this
workshop should supply the participants with all the necessary knowledge, so that they
would be able to evaluate the effectiveness of the European Ecolabel application to one
or more of their products.
Therefore the program has been developed in 3 axes:
� General presentation of the European Ecolabel, scheme, benefits of the European
Ecolabel adaptation and presentation of the European Ecolabel for textile product
group: legislative issues, basic elements of Life Cycle Analysis, steps towards the
award.
� Presentation of the Structure of the Greek Competent Body, responsibilities, fees,
contacts points etc.
� Detailed presentation of the technical eco label criteria.
Based on this philosophy, Mr. Tsourtis as member of the marketing team presented a
general context of the European Ecolabel and the particularities of the Ecolabel in the
product group of “Textiles”, Mrs. Georgouli, member of the Greek CB, presented the
Structure of the Greek Competent Body, fees and application procedures (no slides
used), and Mr. Tsourtis offered the detailed presentation of the technical criteria applied
to products of the product group “Textiles”.
