The Global Ecolabelling Network (GEN), of which we are a member, has inaugurated World Ecolabel Day (WED) which will take place on 25 October this year.
New Zealand furniture, fittings and flooring manufacturers with the Eco Choice Aotearoa (Eco Choice) label have just received a big boost for their business prospects in Australia.
There are 38 Eco Choice specifications for products and services. We believe the time is right to develop a specification that recognises environmental high-performers in C&D waste services. We are here to seek your early input into what that specification might look like.
Please see the attached document for further information.
We value your input and would like to invite your feedback by completing a short survey.

Government-owned ecolabel Eco Choice Aotearoa provides the strongest environmental guarantee of the well-known ecolabels in New Zealand.
Eco Choice Aotearoa has been confirmed as one of the organisations presenting as part of the 2017 Auckland Build Expo’s seminar programme.
The head of Eco Choice, the government's own eco-labelling brand, is calling for it to adopt a programme of sustainable procurement for public bodies.
Building and construction are never far from the headlines in New Zealand these days. Housing shortages, escalating house prices and building costs, shortages of tradespeople fuelled by a demand for skilled builders as construction recovery continues in Canterbury post the earthquakes and in other communities hit by natural disasters like Edgecumbe, not to mention the lingering legacy of the leaky homes era.
Ecolabels provide consumers and businesses with reassurance that purchases meet a robust, agreed environmental standard, but buyers and sellers must ensure the claims are legitimate.
