ECODESIGN+
What is ECODESIGN+?
It is a web application for calculating and improving the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF). Get a short printable sum-up here.
It provides you with a detailed insight into the PCF and supports you with integrated Ecodesign checklists to help you find your own path to improving your product.
Web-based and intuitive
Ready to use immediately – no installation or training required.
Focus on product development
Make informed decisions early in the development phase, even if not all data is available yet.
Checklists for product improvement
Integrated Ecodesign checklists support idea generation to reduce the PCF.
Instant product comparisons
Easily calculate and compare product alternatives based on planned improvements.
Fast results
Calculate and optimize PCFs in the shortest time.
Comprehensive database
Integrated ecoinvent database and established life cycle assessment methods.
Fast results: Calculate and optimize PCFs in the shortest time.
Analysis
Calculate the PCF
You will find all results on a clearly structured page: the total PCF, a breakdown by life cycle phase, and the components and processes with the largest impact.
The principle
Improve
Reduce the PCF using integrated ecodesign checklists
Product developers, in particular, benefit from E+, which evaluates the environmental performance of product designs and variants. Based on this, targeted strategies and ecodesign measures are proposed to implement improvements in the development process.
Integrated ecodesign checklists
- Assessment of the environmental performance of product designs and variants
- Proposal of targeted ecodesign measures for product improvements
Compare
Compare the PCF of product variants
