  • Activity Purpose
  • To assess the environmental performance of a

  • What does the Ecodesign Web do?
  • Assesses different Environmental Areas
  • Materials selection usage
  • Distribution
  • Use
  • Lifetime
  • End of Life
  • Also considers new/innovative ways of performing
    the same function
  • Builds a profile of the current product

4
  • Completing the Ecodesign Web
  • Dismantle the product to be assessed
  • Go to each part of the web in turn and decide how
    good or bad the current product is in that area,
    this is just a relative measure and accuracy is
    not needed
  • Once the result is assigned for each area of the
    web the point can then be joined and the area
    inside the point shaded to give a picture of the
    products performance
  • The targets for the redesign can then be drawn on
    the web and the area shaded in a different colour
