2.1.3 Best environmental practices

2.1.3.1 General principles and guidance I. Ensure sustainability of resources by 2 :  specifying renewable and abundant resources;  specifying renewable forms of energy;  layering recycled and virgin material where virgin material is necessary;  exploiting unique properties of recycled material;  employing common and remanufactured components across models;  specifying mutually compatible materials for recycling;  specifying one type of material for the product and its sub-assemblies;  specifying non-composite, non-blended materials e.g. avoid alloys where possible;  specifying recyclable, or recycled materials, especially those within the company or for which a market exists or needs to be stimulated. II. Ensure inputs and outputs in the product life cycle do not cause environmental degradation or adversely affect human health by:  installing protection against release of pollutants and hazardous substances;  specifying non-hazardous and otherwise environmentally “clean” substances, especially in regards to user health; 2 “A Compilation of Design for Environment Principles and Guidelines”.
