GB/T 47358-2026 Environmental management systems—Guidelines for incorporating material circulation in design and development

Scope

This document provides guidance for organizations to utilize the framework of the Environmental Management System (EMS) to establish, document, implement, maintain, and continuously improve material recycling in a systematic manner during their design and development processes. This document is intended for organizations implementing an environmental management system in accordance with ISO 14001. It can also assist organizations implementing other management systems in integrating material recycling strategies into their design and development processes. This document is applicable to organizations of any size and type of activity. This document provides guidance on design strategies for material recycling to achieve an organization's material efficiency goals, with an emphasis on: - The types and quantities of materials in products; - Extending the lifespan of products; - Recycling products, components, and raw materials. There are many aspects to consider during the design and development process, such as safety, energy efficiency, performance, and cost. While these are also important, this document does not address them.
