Ecodesign entails the integration of environmental considerations into product development, aiming to create goods with the lowest possible environmental impact throughout their life cycle.<\/p>\n

\"ecologico\"<\/a><\/p>\n

EU manufacturers already have to align with ecodesign rules for energy-related products, such as heaters, refrigerators, vacuum cleaners or computers, reducing energy consumption and negative environmental effects in the design stage. The EU now wants to go a step further and introduce ecodesign rules for almost every product.<\/p>\n

New rules for eco-friendly products<\/strong><\/p>\n

In March 2022, the European Commission proposed a new ecodesign regulation that would significantly broaden the scope of products it applies to. It would also introduce additional requirements and minimum standards for durability, reparability, energy efficiency and recycling.<\/p>\n

A Digital Product Passport should accompany products, providing consumers with all the relevant information needed to help them make informed decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
