  5. CEN: European Authority for Normalisation Members: all national authorities, such as • DIN (D) • BSI (UK) • AENOR (E) • AFNOR (F) • UNI (I) (only Epson!) • NEN (NL) (Dupra for example) Basically oem controlled

  6. Process and Results • 6 meetings were held • Intense discussions between Recyclers and OEM’s, for the first time sitting at the same table • The proposed standard is different from what we initially wanted; compromise • Now: ask opinion of ALL national authorities • Definite version: end 2006

  7. Consequences • FOR THE FIRST TIME WE WILL HAVE AN INTERNATIONAL STANDARD!! • Made in direct cooperation with ALL major OEM’s • Comparison with OEM’s possible, using the standard they agreed upon! • CE approval (CE label on products)
