Eco-design projects are a key lever for closing the circular economy loop, notably by optimizing product recyclability or integrating recycled materials. To help you get started, ADEME and the three approved furniture eco-organizations, including Ecomaison, have drawn up a guide.
In this clear, simple and educational document, you will find :
- A reminder of the benefits of eco-design
- A diagram of the main stages contributing to the environmental impact of furniture products
- A presentation of the main levers in the life cycle of furniture products:
- Choosing low-impact materials
- Choose countries with the most virtuous electricity mixes
- Reduce offcuts and production waste
- Choose your manufacturing processes
- Limiting the content of hazardous substances or substances of concern
- Reduce distances covered by components
- Extending the life of furniture
- Optimize their lifespan.
