ECODESIGN checklists for material saving

Improvement measures for raw material intensive products - selection of ECODESIGN measures

Following measures have high priorities and are selected for further product improvements:

Strategy Selecting the right material

1.1 Use of materials with a view to their environmental performance
1.2 Prefer materials from renewable raw materials

Strategy Reducing material inputs

2.1 Prefer the use of recycled materials
2.2 Reduce material input by design aiming at optimum strength

For concretion of the measures information about possible implementation ideas is necessary and therefore questions on estimated costs of improvement, feasability and implementation responsibility are asked.
