Sammendrag

The Group observes that, in general, many aspects remain to be clarified in the horizontal legislation to define rules that are applicable to insect production for food and feed. Although this is a task beyond the mandate of the EGTOP, the Group reflects on some key aspects of the horizontal legislation and provides suggestions for adaptations. In addition, the group proposes recommendations specifically addressing organic insect production.

Sammendrag

The Expert Group for Technical Advice on Organic Production (EGTOP) was requested to advise on the use of several substances in organic production. The Group discussed whether the use of these substances is in line with the objectives and principles of organic production and whether they should therefore be included in Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2018/848 (in the case of hydrolates), in Annex V (in the case of Thiamine hydrochloride and Diammonium hydrogen phosphate; plants proteins from peas and potato for fruit juices, fruit wines, cider, and mead), and Annex VI (in the case of Bark black acacia extract) of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/11652, and to set limitations on the processes for refining of organic (extra) virgin olive oils.

Sammendrag

Understanding the service life of wood products used outdoors is essential for end-users to set realistic expectations regarding material performance. Furthermore, reliable service life data is critical for assessing building costs, environmental impact, and carbon storage potential. The report compiles existing knowledge on the service life of wood in outdoor constructions in Norway. The relevant applications included are wood used in ground contact, decking, and external cladding, and the data are derived from field trials conducted in Norway. The primary aim is to update the service life tables from a report published in 2014. Additionally, the report provides a brief introduction to the topic of wood protection. Many factors influence the service life of wood products, with temperature and moisture being the two most significant. The service life of wood in constructions primarily depends on the application, the natural durability of the material, any wood preservatives used, the presence of wood-degrading organisms, architecture, and craftsmanship. Poorly designed construction details can act as moisture traps, leading to early fungal damage. Therefore, it is important to address future climate challenges with well-informed solutions for optimal wood use. Secondarily, service life depends on thorough and repeated maintenance.
