Eco-design: considering the environment from the design stage onwards
The challenges of eco-design
Mastering a new product life cycle
Moving from a linear approach (extract – manufacture – discard) to a circular vision, optimizing each stage: design, production, distribution, use, and end of life.
Build your reputation and customer trust
A rigorous eco-design approach lends credibility to your commitment, limits the risk of greenwashing, and strengthens your brand image.
Involve all teams to transform your culture
Eco-design is becoming a collective project: it brings together marketing, R&D, purchasing, supply chain, and senior management to create a sustainable, cross-functional culture.
Our approach to eco-design
1. Environmental and Social Scoring
We conduct a comprehensive assessment of your products and services using our Vertone Sustainability Score. This proprietary tool is based on a framework of 27 social, environmental, and economic criteria analyzed across the entire life cycle.
This rigorous approach allows you to accurately quantify your current performance and identify areas of uncertainty, thereby establishing a reliable database—which is essential to any serious and auditable low-carbon strategy.
2. Visualizing the Drivers of Transformation
Once the assessment is complete, we map out your performance to make the invisible tangible. This visualization step helps identify the top areas for improvement and the most promising sources of eco-innovation to boost your overall score.
We translate technical complexity into a clear strategic vision, facilitating decision-making for senior management and enabling operational teams to steer CSR performance.
3. Strategy and Action Plan
We prioritize corrective and innovative measures by evaluating their potential environmental impact in relation to their economic and technical feasibility.
The goal is to develop a clear, phased, and measurable action plan. This strategic roadmap sets out objectives for reducing your carbon footprint and optimizing resources, ensuring that your investments are allocated to the projects that generate the greatest sustainable value.
4. Implementation and Monitoring of Sustainable Performance
We support you in the operational implementation of eco-design solutions and ensure rigorous monitoring of the defined CSR KPIs.
This deployment phase is part of a process of continuous improvement, allowing us to adjust the systems in real time based on feedback from the field and changes in regulatory compliance.
Our support ensures that your offerings remain at the forefront of responsible innovation and maintain their competitive edge over the long term.
