This document provides information on several British Standards relating to eco-design and sustainability. It discusses standards for environmentally conscious design of electrical products (BS EN 62430), design for manufacturing (BS 8887), and remanufacturing (BS 8887-220). It also mentions standards relating to terms and definitions (BS 8887-2) and implementation of the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive. The document provides details on how to purchase the various standards online from the BSI group.
