EVS-EN 303 808 V1.1.1:2023

The present document defines an assessment of the direct applicability of the general material efficiency standards to ICT network infrastructure goods in the context of circular economy. The existing generic standards address durability; ability to remanufacture; repair, reuse, and upgrade; recyclability and recoverability; assessment of recycled content and reused components; critical raw material content and information provision. The present document highlights where further work on metrics/KPI and measurement methodologies may be needed for ICT network infrastructure goods beyond each of the general standards. Specific product standards will take precedence over the present document. The present document is a product family standard and will not define specific product requirements.
