ISO 14006 Eco-Design


The aim of this course is to provide delegates with the knowledge and skills required to understand guidelines of Eco-Design-ISO 14006 and sustainability.

ISO 14006 concept of Eco Design:

ISO 14006: "Organizations are recognizing both the need to reduce adverse impacts on the environment from their product(s) and the need to include environmental considerations in design and development, applying life cycle thinking. This process is generally called "eco-design". Other terms that are used include "design for environment (DIE)", "environmentally conscious design (ECD)", "environmentally sustainable design" and "green design". The term "eco-design" is used throughout this document.Eco-design is defined in this document as a systematic approach, which considers environmental aspects in design and development with the aim to reduce adverse environmental impacts throughout the life cycle of a product. In this document it is understood that the EMS should take account of design and development, and, within that, Eco-design, with a view to enhancing product-related environmental performance. Eco-design should be applied to new and existing products, including the modification of processes as needed in delivering products.".
