result in environmental, health & Wellbeing benefits
Ø Calls for measures at design stage or design
modifications
Ø Leads to impact reduction at various stages of Life Cycle
q Selection of Raw Material
qManufacturing
q Product performance during use
q Disposal / Recycling

2. Product Performance
v Enhance Performance of Products during it’s use
thereby leading to environmental benefits
v Performance parameters to be tested as per
specified testing standards & comply with
requirements
Eg: For Construction Blocks – ‘R’ value to be tested as
per ASTM C55 standard
