What is the life cycle impact of your vacuum cleaner?  We investigated the impact of eighteen electronic products for the UK-based WRAP programme...

Eighteen leading consumer electronic products from a hair-dryer to a vacuum cleaner were put through a thorough evidence based study by WSP to deliver information on their life cycle impacts. This project was for a key research initiative from the UK Government funded WRAP programme. With this knowledge WRAP seek to influence the future direction of the producer and consumer market and improve production, use and disposal.
