Influencing Product Lifetime through Product Design

摘要：

The lifetime of the current generation of audio systems is far away from its ecological optimum. Replacing a product for a better, nicer or just more cosmetically pleasing one is the order of the day. The question this paper addresses is whether optimising the lifetime of audio systems is an interesting concept to gain environmental and business benefit. The paper concludes that in the case of audio systems lifetime optimisation can be used to bring about innovative new ideas that at the same time reduce environmental impact substantially.
