ECODESIGN implementation

the long version

"The book provides twelve easy-to-follow steps for implementing ECODESIGN in a company. It gives clear advice on how to integrate environmental considerations into product design and development, and combine ECODESIGN with life Cycle Assessment and Environmental Communication. Chapters on Product modeling, Life Cycle Assessment, ECODESIGN tasks, Product improvement and Environmental Communication use the previously developed ECODESIGN PILOT (www.ecodesign.at/pilot) and show its application in a real product example." "This book will be of interest to environmental and sustainability managers, engineers in research and product development, to designers, environmental experts, and consultants, as well as to students working in this field."--Jacket.
