Enabling sustainability development of industrial products with life cycle and systems thinking! Feel free to connect with me! You can also give me a ring:+358401842478 -‐- Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) I've been doing LCA's for a few years now for various products. Simplest being a one material product and the most complex being a high-tech machine with thousands of parts. I specialize in the technical cycle and have profound understanding of the manufacturing industry. Circular Economy (CE) Circular Economy is one of my preferred solutions to aim for after conducting LCA's. I know how to steer CE thinking on a very general but I also know what happens on the product and supply chain level as that is where the impact is needed. Concrete projects in remanufacturing, maintenance and repairs give me an excellents hands-on approach possibility! Design for Environment (DfE) I understand that the impacts are in a way designed. So what would be a more suited place to drive impact than steering design principles. Implementing and educating DfE framework is that I can easily help people grasp. Mechanical Engineering It all comes down to this. I'm a mechanical engineer at heart and I value the understanding of different materials, manufacturing methods and design processes highly. Understanding of what you are trying to change is one of the key elements in my opinion.
