Innovate by Ecodesign: Conference
Thursday 28th September 1.30 pm 6 pm in Lyon
Consider all impacts on the environment from the very beginning of a project and for all aspects (technical, market, use) is a way of innovating insomuch as this opens more possibilities of evolution and change of the offer of products and services of the companies:
* It is the occasion to address the user behaviour and the production practices in new ways.
* It is also a way of offering the consumer more sustainable products and new lifestyles which respect the environment.
* Without forgetting the new opportunities via rationalisation and economy of ecodesign.
This year, the conference aims at presenting case studies from companies with among other themes a focus on a quite unknown method in France: Cradle to Cradle Design.
* Herman Miller: An ecodesign pioneer within office furniture
* Electrolux: Who to minimise wasting in all terms of the word by ecodesign
* Riochem / Design Wales: Ecodesign in a SME, in the area of chemical analysis
* EPEA: Presentation of the method Cradle to Cradle Design
