EGMF - the European Garden Machinery Industry Federation - fully supports the European Commission’s ambition to realise a circular economy. The European garden and outdoor power equipment industry shares with households, municipalities, landscapers, greenkeepers, gardeners and farmers the responsibility for green area maintenance and food production.
EGMF members produce a very wide variety of equipment covering a large range of products, in terms of size and usage, for landscaping, forestry, turf maintenance and food production. Within our product portfolio, a wide range of products are battery operated, such as hedge trimmers, leaf blowers, brush cutters, chainsaws, shrub shears, robotic and walk-behind mowers and golf carts.
The European Garden Machinery Federation (EGMF) represents large and small manufacturers of garden, landscaping, forestry, and lawn maintenance equipment. EGMF welcomes the opportunity to provide input to the European Commissions Call for Evidence on the revision of the Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 and would like to share our thoughts regarding the current process for the harmonisation of standards.
The Machinery Directive is undoubtedly a core internal market legislation that has been successfully applied by manufacturers of garden machinery and outdoor power equipment since 2006. This piece of legislation provides our industry with the necessarily stability in the EU legislative framework for more than a decade.
EGMF - the European Garden Machinery Industry Federation, welcomes the opportunity to provide feedback on the European Commission’s legislative proposal on the ‘Empowering the consumer for the green transition’ initiative.

Quality, safety, and environmental performance are key priorities driving manufacturers of garden machinery and outdoor power equipment.

EGMF and FEM welcome the publication of the European Commission's Amending Regulation as regards the obligations of economic operators concerning battery due diligence policies. The proposed amendments provide economic operators and third-party verification bodies with the necessary additional time for fulfilling due diligence processes.
EGMF welcomes the Commission's opportunity to comment on this draft act amending Annex I to the POPs Regulation as regards MCCPs. Our position calls for a clear and exhaustive scope of MCCPs substances, the inclusion of derogations for polymers and rubber used for spare parts and repair of garden machinery, and a general transition period of 18 months from the entry into force of the Delegated Regulation.
EGMF, the European Garden Machinery Federation, welcomes the European Commission proposal on the road approval of non-road mobile machinery. We believe that this legislation is an effective contribution to further deepen the Single Market, by harmonising road circulation requirements for mobile machinery.
