English abstract:
Circular product design refers to different design measures which aim to extend the use time of products and components for as long as possible, thereby preserving materials and minimising environmental impacts over the whole product life cycle. The objective of this research was to develop a method to assess the circularity of different product designs of mobile electronic products (such as smartphones, tablets, etc.) and to guide the user towards a more circular product. As a result, this method was integrated into a web-tool that is simple in its application and widely applicable to assess and evaluate mobile electronic products, and determine strengths and weaknesses of the product design.
