Learn 6 ways to integrate sustainability into product development and manufacturing
SIX STEPS for consumer goods companies to achieve sustainable innovation
Two primary drivers behind the increase in more sustainable products:
- consumers prefer eco-friendly brands; and
- a corporations that consistently apply lean practices.
These are steps to support sustainability goals by optimizing product development and manufacturing.
1.- Now is the Time for Sustainable Innovation
Incorporate sustainability and a circular economy model.
2.- The Quest for New Materials
Accelerate research and development of innovative sustainable materials.
3.- Sustainable by Design
Design sustainable products by incorporating lifecycle assessment throughout product development. With a presentation of the "Three Principles of the Circular Economy"
- 1. Eliminate waste and pollution.
- 2. Keep products and materials in use.
- 3. Regenerate natural systems.
What really inspired me is the LIFECYCLE ASSESMENT (LCA) technology.
LCA helps companies to avoid insensitive design, which has the potential to completely undermine what starts out as an environmentally friendly product. LCA also ensures that sustainability values carry through into the finished product and beyond its end of life.
4.- Realistic Simulation Saves Resources
Embrace virtual twins and simulate to test and refine in the virtual world first.
5.- Optimized Manufacturing
Streamline manufacturing operations 5 for sustainable production.
6.- Virtual Twins hold the Key to a Sustainable World
Accelerate product development via virtual twin technology
