Public procurement amounts to approximately 50 billion euros each year in Sweden. When adding the value of procurement within the private sector, the sum rises to around three times that amount. By using SEMCo's environmental criteria you can reduce your organisation's impact on the environment.

The criteria documents cover common product categories and are regularly updated in order to adapt to the technical development on the market. Most criteria documents are translated into English in order to facilitate green public procurement in other countries and to help suppliers in their communication with suppliers abroad.
