The Federal Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment has announced the release of a new international standard for water efficiency labelling programs – ISO 31660:2022 Water efficiency labelling programs: Requirements with guidance for implementation.
The new international standard, published by the International Organisation for Standardisation, specifies the requirements for a water efficiency labelling program for plumbing products and water using appliances along with guidance for their implementation.
ISO 31600 aims to globally encourage the development of national standards for water efficiency labelling, which will further lead to development and marketing of water efficient products, and enable consumers to make an informed choice, influencing manufacturers to improve the performance of their products through consumer demand.
