Essential perspectives for design for environment. Experiences from the electronics industry

Abstract: Consolidation of knowledge, information and experiences in application of Design for Environment principles is done at various levels, ranging from easy to understand slogans to design guidelines, and even to tailor-made solutions. This brings about that dissemination of this knowledge should be done taking carefully the intended audience and relevant contexts into account-especially when dissemination is done in the form of 'principles', which are usually presented without context at all. It is discussed in t… Show more

“…More recently, DFE is considered to have matured; this view is supported by Boks and Stevels (2007) where we "….have all the procedures in place, have considerable experience, [and] have recurring problems with embedding environmental issues in the organization and its value chain." DFE embodies the philosophical view that environmental considerations must be integrated into the design of any product or process at the inception of the design phase.…”

“…Examples include Sroufe, Curkovic, Montaban, and Melnyk (2000); Lenox and King (2000); Ernzer and Wimmer (2002);and Boks and Stevels (2007). In addition to minimal consideration of performance effects, prior research on DFE has not specifically addressed quality innovation as a factor in the successful implementation of DFE.…”

“…Other gaps relate to lack of capacity building of workers; excessive complexity in product and process development (Lindahl, 2006;Pochat et al, 2007;Bovea and Pérez-Belis, 2012); lack of standardisation for the assessment of designed products (Bahmed et al, 2005); lack of integration between eco-design and product development; disassociation related to management and manufacturing strategies (Baumann et al, 2002;Johansson, 2006;Luttropp and Lagerstedt, 2006;Pochat et al, 2007); difficulties for defining and prioritising practices to be employed (Boks and Stevels, 2007); inappropriate language for the development of products that meet environmental requirements (Lofthouse, 2006); obstacles for cooperation, communication and access to information (Poulikidou et al, 2014;Bey et al, 2013).…”

“…Table 3 shows some terms and definitions found in the literature. Boks and Stevels (2007) Similar to the LPD field, there does not seem to be any commonly agreed upon terminology for the greening of products, and the GPD concept is still not well defined (Chen, 2001). The GDP concept has been claimed to be relevant for different industry sectors, depending on how much drive there is from customers and legislation regarding materials usage and end-of-life treatment (Albino et al, 2012).…”
