Kohler’s Design for Environment Program
Our journey to communicate the environmental impacts of our products began in 2011 when we began using life cycle inventory to understand the environmental impact of our products and processes. This spurred the development of a program to optimize the design of products and processes, an approach we call Design for Environment (DfE). The DfE program is a creative decision-making process that involves various teams brainstorming solutions to enhance sustainability throughout the product’s lifecycle.
