WS FOSSIL FREE PRODUCTS - Fossil Free Products - Guidelines and Requirements for Fossil Fuel Free Supply Chains
The goal of this CEN/WS is the development of a CWA which provides clear guidelines and criteria for products produced without burning fossil fuels. It is intended to specify: • Guidelines for all elements and materials of a product to be created without burning oil, fossil gas, coal (or peat) in their supply chains. • Ways to show the operation of manufacturing sites, including suppliers and subcontractors, entirely on renewable energy sources during production. • Methods for demonstrating energy used in manufacturing processes. • Methods for demonstrating the use of renewable energy for transport of the product and its component materials. The guidelines and criteria set forth by the CEN/CENELEC Workshop are applicable to and intended to be used by: • Manufacturers which intend to eliminate the burning of fossil fuels in their supply chain or have already done so. • Environmental organizations and consumer groups advocating for sustainable production practices. • Industry associations adopting and promoting standardized guidelines within their sectors. The CWA can also be of interest for: • Certification bodies verifying compliance with fossil free product standards. • Regulatory authorities implementing policies promoting fossil free supply chains. The CEN/CENELEC Workshop guidelines are not applicable to and not intended to be used by: • Companies not able to eliminate the burning of fossil fuels in their supply chains. • Hydrocarbon-based products.

The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Technical Committee (TC) in CEN is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
