Lifecycle design approaches are widely used in industry to quantify the eco-sustainability of products and to give them a tangible commercial value in terms of efficiency and costs.

Abstract
Lifecycle design approaches are widely used in industry to quantify the eco-sustainability of products and to give them a tangible commercial value in terms of efficiency and costs. They are commonly applied for two reasons: to identify the more advantageous trends in product innovation and to support customer ’s decision-making. Recently, increasing competition and technological developments result in high time, cost and development pressure. These facts induce the need for differentiation for most companies but also for reducing time-to-market. In this context, companies are pushed to move from a product-centred perspective to a product-service one, towards the new concept of “extended products ”.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
