Metapodaci o publikaciji
The EU Ecodesign Directive and the Energy Labelling Regulation aim to improve the environmental performance of products by establishing minimum design requirements and by obligating the provision of consumer information related to a product’s energy efficiency and other environmental and performance characteristics. The EU Circular Economy Action Plan and Ecodesign Working Plan 2016-2019 aim to promote the transition to a more circular economy through a series of measures that cover the whole life cycle of a product. In those documents, the Commission indicated their intention to explore more systematically the possibility of establishing ecodesign and energy labelling requirements related to reparability, durability, and upgradability. The 2018 Behavioural Study on Consumers’ Engagement in the Circular Economy found that information on reparability and durability of products steers consumer choice towards more reparable and durable products. In this study, a reparability indication was already tested (see Figure 1.1). The Commission Joint Research Centre has recently conducted a technical study on the analysis and development of a scoring system to indicate reparability. This scoring system enables the calculation of one overall reparability score, based on performance on several parameters (e.g. availability of spare parts, ease of disassembly, etc.). The present study focuses on the communication of reparability information to consumers. Introducing mandatory product reparability information should not only help consumers to easily compare products on this aspect and identify well-performing products, but should also incentivise producers to take reparability of their products more closely into account during design and manufacturing.
