Design for recycling

Design for recycling is the process of creating products with their end-of-life in mind, making them easier to disassemble, sort, and recycle. It involves selecting materials that are recyclable, reducing the use of mixed or hazardous components, and designing parts that can be separated efficiently. The goal is to minimize waste, conserve resources, and promote a circular economy where products are reused or recycled rather than discarded. This approach helps reduce environmental impact and supports sustainable manufacturing by ensuring products can be responsibly recycled at the end of their usability.
