During the consultation period, Nordic Ecolabelling gives you the opportunity to comment on our proposal for new criteria for Textile services 075.

Bild för produktgrupp, textilservice

Nordic Ecolabelling are revising the requirements for textile services. Textile services operate according to a business model based on the supply of clean textiles. The textile service company owns the laundry facilities and typically purchases and owns the textiles and provides a “clean textiles” service. This product group covers the entire textile service. You are welcome to respond to the proposal no later than 14 August 2026.
