AbstractAbstract
The European Commission released the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products and Energy Labelling Working Plan 2025-2030, which promotes the entry of durable, repairable, circular and energy efficiency requirements into key products.
2025 Timeline and Evidence
The work plan sets out the priority product and horizontal requirements for the coming years.
Durability, repairability, recycling materials and product information will affect research and development earlier.
Digital product passports bring some environmental data into the entire product life cycle.
Institution of Institutions Study
In the past, eco-design often calculated the material impact after the program was determined; the new regulatory path required it to enter the definition of demand.Shells, connectors, software support periods and spare parts systems can all be design indicators.
Design Response Design Response
01 Add the disassembly time and spare parts target to the product briefing.
Let industrial design, engineering, aftermarket and compliance review together.
03 Compare maintenance, refurbishment and recycling paths with life cycle scenarios.
AURELIS observation
Sustainable design is shifting from brand proposition to verifiable performance.The sooner maintenance and data are included in the architecture, the lower the later compliance costs.
