Another example of requirements within this category could be to set a requirement to an automatic detergent dosing system for washing machines avoiding over-dosage and overconsumption of detergents. By including requirements to the manufacturing the labels expand the scope from a product focus towards a production focus. The Ecodesign Directive, as the name states, mainly sets requirements to the design of the product, however targeting the environmental performance of the entire product life cycle. Therefore setting direct requirements to the manufacturing process might be outside the scope of the Directive.
