Amendment 113 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 8
8. Believes, therefore, that the implementation of the Ecodesign Directive – in addition to continued efforts to improve energy efficiency – must now address the full life cycle of the products within its scope, with the setting up of minimum resource criteria covering, inter alia, robustness, repairability and upgradeability, but also sharing potential, reuse, scalability, recyclability and use of recycled materials or secondary raw materials in the manufacture of products;;

Amendment 116 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 8
8. Believes, therefore, that the implementation of the Ecodesign Directive – in addition to continued efforts to improve energy efficiency – must now address the full life cycle of the products within its scope, with the setting up of minimum resource criteria covering, inter alia, robustness, repairability and upgradeability, but also sharing potential, reuse, scalability, recyclability and use of recycled materials; considers, nevertheless, that the number of criteria must be limited and that they must be defined in a clear and objective manner, whilst being easily measurable and entailing a reasonable cost, in order to guarantee a pragmatic approach, thus making it possible to preserve the operational nature of the Directive;

8a.

Amendment 131 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 9
9. Welcomes in this regard the 2016- 9. 2019 Ecodesign work programme, which includes commitments to develop requirements and standards for material efficiency, supporting the use of secondary raw materials, and urges the Commission to complete this work as a matter of priority; considers that such criteria should be based on robust analyses, focus on areas with clear improvement potential and be enforceable and verifiable by market surveillance authorities;
