Evaluation of DFX Tools in Ecodesign

This paper discusses the essence of ecodesign, respectively three key terms: sustainable development, cleaner production and life cycle management compares traditional product development with ecodesign. The term DFX tools is used to sum up all tools which provide a methodology that is focused on part of a product&#8217 ; ; ; s life cycle or focused on one of a number of ways to improve an aspect of a product. In this paper it will be given an idea how it could be possible to evaluate DFX tools which is using in ecodesign (the ECO Tools). This paper discusses some similarity of DFX tools with the LCA/LCI tools, as in providing an inventory of the inputs and outputs during part of a life cycle of a product, process or activity. An advice to future users of ECO tools will be also given in this paper.
