«The ecodesign process with a pragmatic life cycle assessment of two products by Milani was very valuable for us. The innovation potential derived from this both pays off in terms of sustainability and strengthens our market position.»

Developing Sustainable Products— both marketable and focused on implementation

Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important differentiating factor when it comes to market presence. Up to 80% of a product’s environmental impact is decided in the design phase. Including sustainability in product design opens up tremendous potential in terms of material suitability, freedom from harmful substances, durability, repairability, recyclability and durability over time.

Rising commodity prices and persisting problems with global supply chains also show that companies with value and supply chains that are geared toward sustainability are more resistant to crises. Sustainable action and entrepreneurial success go hand in hand.

Milani supports companies in making products sustainable and designs marketable solutions that are focused on implementation. Ecodesign and design for the circular economy extend products’ and materials’ life cycles, reduce waste and optimize energy consumption. Ideally, companies can efficiently close resource loops.

Sustainable product design also means rethinking products. Milani leverages growth opportunities in the circular economy to combine products with new services and business models.
