As product designers we have a big influence on these aspects. For example, we can opt for materials that are broken down by nature &#8211; or are completely reusable. We can design a product in such a way that it will last for a long time \u2013 or in a way that it is very easy to disassemble, adapt or improve. We can use non-toxic substances and smart production methods.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">By making the right choices we can design good products. Products that make the world better, not worse. Products our clients can distinguish themselves with.

Choices in the design process are based on the desired life cycle: &#8220;waste is food&#8221;. In nature we do not want fewer trees because those leaves pollute the ground, but more falling leaves mean more nutrients. Customers of our clients do not have to feel guilty when buying or using a Cradle-to-cradle product, but could do this more.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The circular economy, people-planet-profit, bio-mimicry; they are all inspiring strategies of which we like to implement knowledge and ideas into our designs.

For example, designing a car that runs on green energy is much better than a more economical diesel or driving a car a little less often.

For example, a business model in which you approach your product as a service. The provision of a service can create a higher and more stable income than the sale of a product. The constant service, instead of a one-time purchase of the product, can lead to greater customer retention. Moreover, it can ensure that your company can keep the value of the products in its own possession: disassembled and reusable materials will be your raw materials and lead to savings in raw materials and production.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2985&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row bg_type=&#8221;image&#8221; bg_override=&#8221;ex-full&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1518617210653{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Do you want to talk about our design vision?&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|text_align:center|color:%23000000&#8243; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1524050681690{padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">From our design agency in Utrecht we design the sustainable products of the future.<br \/>\n<\/span>Call us on +31 (0)30 202 1552 to get in touch.<\/h6>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=&#8221;Our contact details&#8221; style=&#8221;outline-custom&#8221; outline_custom_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; outline_custom_hover_background=&#8221;#7d9332&#8243; outline_custom_hover_text=&#8221;#f2f2f2&#8243; shape=&#8221;square&#8221; size=&#8221;sm&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.worteldesign.com%2Fen%2Fcontact%2F|||&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1524050736972{margin-top: 30px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1516634606962{margin-bottom: 25px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Sustainable products&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|text_align:center|color:%23000000&#8243; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1524050390044{padding-top: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text] Products are means to achieve more.
