Designed to bridge the gap between the aspirations of circular design and the heavy weight detail of LCA’s, ‘Positive Products®’is our solution to delivering net positive commercial products in balance with People, Planet & Profits.
With so many sustainability options out there, it can be hard to know where to start. Then it’s even tougher to drive big ideas all the way through complex and technical new product developments, especially in the face of conflicting commercial pressures. It’s not surprising early lofty goals so often end up in frustratingly small “dabbling at the edges” type improvements…
That’s why we created a set of tools to light up the entire design decision-making process with an intelligent balance between People, Planet and Profit. We will help you identify and bake in positive goals that work for your company, to develop and launch products, with real triple bottom line wins that are hard to argue with.
What is Positive Products? – Andrew explains how we design products in line with people, the planet and profit by bridging the gap between profitability and sustainability, making bravery more rational for our clients.
This is not new; we’ve been using Positive Products within our process for over 20 years. Watch the introduction for a top-level understanding of how and why we use Positive Products.
