Side by side

Compare organizations

Consultation participation and their own register declarations, side by side. Counts, not judgments — participation is not influence.

Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 583 consultation files tracked so far (42,224 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.

What each said, in their own words

Their opening passages on the files they share, verbatim and in filing order. We do not summarize, compare, or characterize positions — read them at source.

Substantiation and communication of explicit environmental claims (Green Claims Directive)

Bundesverband der Deutschen Industrie e.V. · filed 27 Aug 2020 · source

The BDI supports the further development of the Product Environmental Footprint (PEF) method as a voluntary procedure for evaluating the environmental impact of products. The further development should be brought in line with the ISO standards for calculation and reporting or communication. The methods for calculating (eco)toxicity need to be technically revised.

Bundesverband der Deutschen Industrie e.V. · filed 11 Jul 2023 · source

Environmental claims are playing an increasingly important role in shaping consumers' opinions and purchasing decisions. The sustainability of products and services has become a competitive factor. Products declared as "green" or sustainable are now experiencing greater growth in the EU domestic market than other products.

Cyber Resilience Act

Global Affairs Canada · filed 25 May 2022 · source

Canada appreciates the opportunity offered by the European Commission to provide feedback on the Commission’s new European Cyber Resilience Act (CRA). Canada strongly supports the legitimate objective of strengthening the cybersecurity of digital products, and recognizes the increased threat to security and privacy caused by the rising number of these products.

Bundesverband der Deutschen Industrie e.V. · filed 12 Dec 2022 · source

German industry advocates for the implementation of risk-adequate cybersecurity measures across all products with digital elements during the design, development and production phases as well as when and while a product is placed on the market. We therefore support the European Commissions proposal for the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) in principle.
