Implementation Background In July 1992 the Bureau of Product Standards (BPS) signed an agreement with the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers (Philippines) for voluntary labelling of household air conditioners. In October 1993, this program became mandatory and by June 1994 had been expanded to cover all sizes of window/wall type air conditioners. In 2000 labels for cold appliances (refrigerators and freezers) were introduced. A voluntary label for fluorescent lamp ballasts was introduced in 2000 and this will be mandatory by 2002.There is a plan to eventually include other industrial equipment in the labelling program.
