This document provides guidelines to assist organizations in establishing, documenting, implementing, maintaining and continually improving material circulation in their design and development in a systematic manner, using an environmental management system (EMS) framework.
These guidelines are intended to be used by those organizations that implement an EMS in accordance with ISO 14001. The guidelines can also help in integrating material circulation strategies in design and development when using other management systems. The guidelines can be applied to any organization regardless of its size or activity.
This document provides guidelines for design strategies on material circulation to achieve the material efficiency objectives of an organization, by focusing on the following aspects:
-
Type and quantity of materials in products
-
Product lifetime extension
-
Recovery of products, parts, and materials
In design and development, many aspects are considered, such as safety, performance, and cost. Although important, they are not addressed in this document.
