Ecodesign Directive

The Ecodesign Directive is a European Union regulation aimed at improving the environmental impact of products throughout their lifecycle. It sets energy efficiency and sustainability standards for various goods, such as appliances and electronics. By establishing requirements for design, production, and recycling, the directive encourages manufacturers to create products that consume less energy, are easier to repair, and generate less waste. Ultimately, the goal is to help reduce pollution and promote a circular economy, where resources are used efficiently and materials are reused or recycled, benefiting both the environment and consumers.
