Ökobilanz (LCA) im Produktdesign
Da Industrie und Designer mit dem zunehmenden Druck der Vorschriften und der Nachfrage der Verbraucher nach Nachhaltigkeit zu kämpfen haben, wird die Integration von LCA in die Produktentwicklung immer wichtiger.
ISO 14040
ISO 14040 is an international standard that provides a framework for conducting Lebenszyklus Assessment (LCA), which evaluates the environmental impacts of a product throughout its entire life cycle, from raw material extraction to disposal. This standard outlines the principles and requirements for LCA, ensuring consistency and transparency in the assessment process. By adhering to ISO 14040, organizations can make informed decisions that enhance sustainability and reduce ecological footprints in product design, innovation, research, and production.
