Eco-design – Westside’s environmental performance
Making eco-design is in itselfa step towards sustainability, taking into account environmental, social and economic issues. Sustainability is not just about getting your plants certified. It’s about creating products that include both environmental and human health as key decision parameters, alongside usual considerations like quality, reliability and price.
Lifecycle Thinking for environmentally friendly products
At Steelcase we designed Westside applying expertise to measure, analyse then reduce the impacts that our products have on the environment.
Materials Assessment
For Westsidewe selected materials that are safe, healthy, and ecologically sound throughout their lifecycle, with our partner McDonough Braungart Design Chemistry (MBDC)
Lifecycle Assessment (LCA)
The LCA methodology is the starting point for the continuous improvement of our products. It is based on the ISO 14040-43 and has been selected by the European Union for environmental evaluation.
Environmental parameters considered throughout Westside’s lifecycle are:global warming, acidification, eutrophication, photochemical smog, Abiotic resource depletion, waste, and toxic substances.
Our partners when carrying out LCA studies are: the Institute for Product Development in Denmark, the Institute for Engineering Design in Austria and the Institute of Chambery in France.
To ensure a more environmentally healthful product we considered the potential environmental impact throughout Westside’sentire lifecycle -- from materials extraction to end-of-use strategies -- as part of our overall design and development process.
This global vision over Westside’slifecycle helped us avoid the transfers of pollution from one stage to another or from one country to another.
Transparency with environmental declarations
At Steelcase we communicate openly and factually about the environmental performance of our products, through environmental declarations.
With Westside, we can provide:
The international Environmental Product Declarations (EPD), based on Iso/TR 14025, communicates clear and transparent information about a product’s impacts on the environment at all stages of its lifecycle. /
The French “NF Environnement” certificate is based on Iso 14024 and certifies that Steelcase products (to which it is granted) have a lesser negative impact on the environment and offer suitable fitness for use compared with other products available on the market.
