1 hr confidence: 
household goods/items Explanation: very hard to say in this context but maybe (I think you should ask the client for closer specification ... if the client can provide that info) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2014-02-05 05:01:35 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "Wirtschaft" can just refer to "housekeeping" as opposed to the more economic term as below: Definition of economic goods: A consumable item that is useful to people but scarce in relation to its demand, so that human effort is required to obtain it. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2014-02-05 05:12:14 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- thi list is not worded in hospital-specific terms so maybe "household goods/items" would fit the bill but let's see what others have to say ... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2014-02-05 05:13:17 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- should read "the list" of course -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2014-02-05 05:49:07 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- maybe "domestic goods/items" |

10 hrs confidence: peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1commodities and consumer goods (for hospitals) Explanation: As described in the following link: http://www.taiwantrade.com.tw/MAIN/SimpleProdCategorySch.do?... It also seems to include much of what is exhibited at this U.K. trade show: http://www.esuppliersindia.com/tradefairs/HEALTHCARE-ESTATES... I also found the dictionary entry "economic good(s)" but I think that's too general for our context: http://www.seadict.com/de/en/wirtschaftsware http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/economic good |
