1 Scope

GB/T 26669-2024 is the Chinese vocabulary of environmentally conscious design for electrical and electronic products. Ecodesign has become a regulatory requirement rather than a voluntary practice, in China through the green product programme and outside it through the European ecodesign and right-to-repair rules that Chinese exporters must satisfy, and the vocabulary is where the requirements bite: durability, reparability, upgradeability, recyclability, recoverability and disassembly time are all defined quantities with legal consequence, and a loose usage in a Chinese specification will not survive an audit. The standard defines the terms across the field: the general environmentally conscious design terms, the life cycle terms, the material terms including recycled and recyclable content and restricted substances, the design strategy terms of reduction, reuse, repair, remanufacture and recycling, the end-of-life treatment terms, and the assessment, declaration and communication terms. It takes effect on 1 December 2024.

This document defines terms and definitions related to environmentally aware design of electrical and electronic products: This document is applicable to the drafting of environmental awareness design standards for electrical and electronic products and the preparation of technical documents: The terms in this document are divided into environmental awareness design basic terms, environmental awareness design method terms, environmental awareness design evaluation terms, life Classification of life cycle assessment terminology and environmentally aware design information terminology: Appendix A provides a schematic diagram of the main terms for end-of-life treatment of electrical and electronic products:
