Such countries are in alphabethical order:

Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Denmark, Great Britain, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, USA and the supranational European Union.

The commissioners are companies, industrial trade associations, governments and international organisations. The practitioners are mostly consultancies specialized in LCA, university institutes or experienced groups in companies.
