EUROLAB has published a position paper examining the changing sustainability regulations introduced by the European Commission and their impact on the business environment and Conformity Assessment Bodies (CABs).
The backdrop to this paper is the European Commission’s launch of two Omnibus simplification packages back in February. These packages are part of a strategy to bolster EU competitiveness by streamlining requirements under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) and the Taxonomy Regulation.
Key changes include reducing the number of companies within the CSRD’s scope by around 80%, focusing reporting obligations on larger undertakings with more than 1,000 employees and creating voluntary standards for smaller firms.
The commission aims to cut administrative burdens by 25% for all businesses and by as much as 35% for SMEs, with the intention of keeping European industry attractive and sustainable.
EUROLAB welcomes these initial steps, acknowledging that simplification and deregulation are vital, especially when it comes to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) requirements. It warns, however, that any additional regulatory burdens could undermine the profit margins and long-term financial stability of CABs.
EUROLAB is calling for future regulations to focus on building a robust culture of sustainability, allowing organisations to invest meaningfully in process improvements rather than administrative overheads.
Registration is now open for the upcoming EUROLAB webinar Mutual Recognition Agreements on Conformity Assessment and Challenges Faced by Laboratories in the EU and International Export Markets.
EUROLAB is holding an online workshop – Safety of Sustainable Food Packaging – state of the art and needs for contaminant assessment as part of its 23IND13 ScreenFood Project.
EUROLAB is hosting a three-day international training event on improving testing by improving temperature measurements from 4–6 June in Valletta, Malta.
The BMTA welcomes EUROLAB Technical Report ”Guidelines for managing sustainability in Conformity Assessment Bodies (CABs)”, as a timely and practical contribution for testing and calibration laboratories and wider testing/inspection/certification (TIC) organisations navigating sustainability expectations.
EUROLAB and UNIDO have announced a series of seminars between September and November 2025 under the UNIDO Global Quality and Standards Programme (GQSP).
