Abstract:
This paper gives the application of design for environment concept on stabilizer product. The environment effects can be observed on the life cycle of the product, start from the material extraction process, material processing, manufacturing process, product distribution, the use of the product, until the disposal of the product. The redesign of environmentally friendly product had done by using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) concept from the effects which is caused by the product. The evaluation is done by using two methods, AT&T methods which results the evaluation through environmental responsible product rating (RERP) for each life cycle of the product, and also Eco-Indicator methods which results the evaluation through Eco-Indicator (Pt) points. The result of AT&T method evaluation through environmental responsible product rating (RERP) is 28, and from Eco-Indicator 95 method find out that material extraction give the biggest negative effect to the environment. The redesign of stabilizer through material changes, simplify product design, minimize product dimension, and clustering product component. The environmental responsible product rating (RERP) of redesign product increased to 41 and the indicator points decreased at each product life cycle.
