Assessing repairability must provide a detailed picture of a product\u2019s repair capabilities. A precise, structured initial diagnosis can identify the product\u2019s strengths and weaknesses, from which an effective strategy can be deduced for rapidly improving its reparability. <\/p>\n

In the design or redesign phase, it is essential to consider and clearly define a repairability strategy in the same way as a reliability strategy, in order to bring truly sustainable products to market.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=\u201d1\u2033 _builder_version=\u201d4.20.4\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d background_color=\u201d#F2F2F2\u2033 custom_padding=\u201d7px|||||\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d][et_pb_row column_structure=\u201d1_2,1_2\u2033 _builder_version=\u201d4.20.4\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d][et_pb_column type=\u201d1_2\u2033 _builder_version=\u201d4.20.4\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u201d4.20.4\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d]<\/p>\n

Repairability and eco-design strategy<\/h3>\n

Repairability is an excellent part of an eco-design strategy, as it is an effective lever for extending the useful life of electrical appliances, for example. By helping to extend useful life, repairability contributes to the amortisation of the results of impact category indicators linked to all phases of production, upstream of use;<\/p>\n

Repairability and Obsolescence<\/h3>\n

Challenging the reparability of its products is also an excellent way of guarding against the risk of premature obsolescence. The communication costs for a manufacturer are very high, and it is essential to check that the various repair scenarios are consistent with the risks of identified failures;<\/p>\n

    \u201cThank you for this beta test. The time spent on the subject is very reasonable in relation to the deliverable obtained. 23 pages may seem like a lot, but it\u2019s the minimum to lay the foundations and to be complete. I really liked the critical review and the suggestions for improvements to get 90\/100.

          Product reparability refers to the ease with which a product can be repaired in the event of a malfunction or breakdown. Repairability means assessing a product\u2019s ability to be repaired according to its own specific failure scenarios.<\/span><\/p>\n

          In quality terms, repairability means restoring the nominal capabilities of a product that has broken down and enabling the transition from a dysfunctional state to a functional state.<\/span><\/p>\n

          It is generally measured by the ability to disassemble, repair and replace product components, and by the availability of spare parts and repair manuals.<\/span><\/p>\n

          [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=\u201dWhat are the advantages of reparability?\u201d open_toggle_text_color=\u201d#009541\u2033 closed_toggle_text_color=\u201d#5CC4E7\u2033 _builder_version=\u201d4.20.2\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d toggle_text_color=\u201d#009541\u2033 open=\u201doff\u201d]<\/p>\n

          1) Reduce premature waste: <\/span> <\/span><\/h3>\n

          Equipment that breaks down is all too often discarded. This is leading to a massive increase in waste volumes, particularly WEEE, which is highly damaging to the environment. Working on the reparability of products is the first step towards respecting the use cycle of appliances and the necessary ecological transition.<\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00a0<\/p>\n

          2) Reduce pressure on resources : <\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

          Product reparability is a key factor in preserving natural resources. Indeed, when products are designed to be easily repairable, they can be reused and their useful life extended rather than being thrown away and replaced by new products. <\/span>
          \n<\/span>Reducing the renewal rate of a product has a direct impact on reducing the demand for raw materials, energy and other natural resources needed to produce new products;<\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00a0<\/p>\n

          3) Reduce costs: <\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

          As well as being an ecological act, repairing products is often less expensive than buying a new one. When products are designed to be easily repaired, consumers can save money by repairing faults rather than buying new products\u2026 <\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00a0<\/p>\n

          4) Encouraging sustainability: <\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

          Products that are easy to repair tend to be more durable. By encouraging the reparability of products, we can encourage manufacturers to produce quality products that last longer. <\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00a0<\/p>\n

          5) Promote the circular economy: <\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

          The reparability of products is a crucial factor in promoting the circular economy and re-use. Adding value to products or extending their useful life by reusing them almost always requires a refurbishment stage, including maintenance and\/or repair operations. Circular economy players such as Envie, Emma\u00fcs and les ateliers du Bocages have every interest in being clear about the repairability of the products they wish to promote. <\/span><\/p>\n

          Lastly, the reparability of products promotes the circular economy at the end of the chain, since end-of-life products have all the characteristics needed to be properly recovered, either through the recovery of spare parts or through the recovery or recycling of raw materials to be used again in the production of new products;<\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00a0<\/p>\n

          6) Supporting employment :<\/span> <\/span><\/h3>\n

          Repairability can help create jobs in the repair sector. In fact, the more easily products are designed to be repaired, the more work there is for repairers and, more generally, for the repair and re-use industry as a whole. <\/span><\/p>\n

          To sum up<\/strong>,The repairability of equipment is important from both an environmental and a social point of view. From an environmental point of view, repairability is an effective way of combating the production of premature waste, while also reducing pressure on resources. From a social point of view, repairability enables households to preserve and reduce their expenditure, while maintaining a local employment base with low relocation potential via the repair and\/or reconditioning sector. <\/span>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=\u201dWhat is the reparability index?\u201d _builder_version=\u201d4.20.2\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d open=\u201doff\u201d]<\/p>\n

          This new regulatory measure will be introduced in France in 2021 as part of the anti-waste law for a circular economy. In practical terms, the reparability index is a score out of 10 designed to quantify the reparability of products. The Agec law introduced this tool into the Consumer Code, and several decrees govern its use. <\/span><\/p>\n

          In concrete terms, the reparability index assesses the ease with which a product can be repaired, based on a number of criteria such as the availability of spare parts, technical documentation, the complexity of the repair, etc. The higher the score, the easier the product is to repair.<\/span><\/p>\n

          [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=\u201dWhat is the purpose of the reparability index?\u201d _builder_version=\u201d4.20.2\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d open=\u201doff\u201d]<\/p>\n

          The purpose of the reparability index is twofold. Firstly, it aims to provide all consumers with clear, legible information on the reparability of the 9 product categories concerned, so that they can make informed decisions when purchasing products. <\/span><\/p>\n

          Secondly, it aims to stimulate the eco-design of products by encouraging manufacturers to design more repairable products while improving their policies to support repair processes such as after-sales service. By rewarding manufacturers who design products that are easier to repair with a higher score, the index encourages healthy competition.<\/span><\/p>\n

          [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=\u201dWhat are the criteria for the reparability index?\u201d _builder_version=\u201d4.20.2\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d open=\u201doff\u201d]<\/p>\n

          A series of criteria must be evaluated to calculate the French government\u2019s reparability index. In detail, here are the criteria for the reparability index.<\/span><\/p>\n

          Criteria 1: Technical documentation<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

          The aim is to assess both the completeness of the technical documentation and its accessibility over time and to the various stakeholders (repairers and consumers). <\/span>
          \n<\/span>This criterion verifies, for example, the presence of disassembly diagrams, exploded views, wiring diagrams, electronic board diagrams, repair instruction manuals, error and diagnostic codes, operating and maintenance manuals\u2026 <\/span><\/p>\n

          Criterion 2: Demonstrability<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

          In this criterion, particular attention is paid to the dismantling of parts likely to break or break down. Assessing the ease with which defective parts can be replaced without damaging other components is essential. Several points are scrutinized in this criterion, including : <\/span><\/p>\n

            \n
          • Parts are easy to disassemble<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Tools for disassembly<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Typology of part fasteners<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Criterion 3: Spare parts<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

            Firstly, this criterion verifies the manufacturer\u2019s commitment to ensuring that a number of parts essential to the proper functioning of the product will be available for as long as possible after production has been completed. <\/span><\/p>\n

            It also focuses on the delivery times associated with the supply of these spare parts, either to the after-sales service or to the end user;<\/span><\/p>\n

            Criterion 4: Price of spare parts<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

            This criterion focuses on the price of parts, which is simple but necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n

            Criterion 5: The specific criterion<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

            This criterion is linked to the assessment of reparability, but is specific to each product family. For example, the specific criterion for washing machines is still accessibility for counter use! <\/span><\/p>\n

            The French reparability index is a rating system expressed on a scale of 1 to 10, where 10 corresponds to a very easily repairable product and 1 to a product that is very difficult to repair. It measures the ease with which a product can be restored to working order in the event of a breakdown or malfunction and communicates this in the form of a display. <\/span><\/p>\n

            The reparability index is self-determined by the producer using calculation grids available for the nine product families covered by the index.<\/span><\/p>\n

            Here are the steps to follow to calculate this index:<\/span><\/p>\n

            1) Identify and understand the measurement criteria of the appropriate calculation grid: <\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

            After checking that the product is covered by the French government\u2019s index, the producer must download the grid and understand the scope of its criteria.<\/span><\/p>\n

            2) Assign points for each criterion <\/span> <\/span><\/h3>\n

            The reparability index is based on several criteria: <\/span><\/p>\n

              \n
            1. accessibility of spare parts (price, availability time and network)<\/span><\/li>\n
            2. ease of disassembly (number of steps and tools)<\/span><\/li>\n
            3. technical documentation (completeness, network, accessibility) <\/span><\/li>\n
            4. a specific criterion, such as software update conditions.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              Each criterion is assessed on a scale from 0 to 10. The more the product meets the criterion, the more points it scores. <\/span><\/p>\n

              3) Calculate overall score <\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

              Once each criterion has been assessed according to the scale provided in the French government decrees, the overall score is calculated by adding up the points for each criterion and dividing the total by five. A weighting system has recently been introduced to counter certain biases in the calculation matrix. <\/span><\/p>\n

              4) Convert note to index <\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

              The overall score is then converted into a reparability index on a scale of 1 to 10. The manufacturer must isolate the colour pictogram corresponding to its score <\/span><\/p>\n

              5) Communicate the index<\/span> <\/span><\/h3>\n

              The producer must communicate the reparability index to distributors and must also make visible the information used to establish this calculation. The index must be displayed in accordance with the recommendations specified in the relevant regulations. <\/span><\/p>\n

              [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=\u201dWho calculates the reparability index?\u201d _builder_version=\u201d4.20.2\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d open=\u201doff\u201d]<\/p>\n

              In France, the reparability index is self-reporting. This means that it is calculated by the producers themselves using the calculation matrices provided by French regulations.
              \n<\/span>
              \n<\/span>In some cases, producers use independent third parties to calculate or verify their index for greater impartiality.
              \n<\/span>It should be noted that manufacturers are required to make available all the information used to define their indexes, so that anyone can check the accuracy of the information.<\/span><\/p>\n

              In the event of error or fraud, producers could be charged with misleading communication.<\/span><\/p>\n

              [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=\u201dWhich products are covered by the reparability index?\u201d _builder_version=\u201d4.20.2\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d open=\u201doff\u201d]<\/p>\n

              As specified in the AGEC law, the list of products covered by the French reparability index will be specified by decree. It currently covers 9 different product categories, divided between household appliances, digital cameras and tools; <\/span><\/p>\n

                \n
              • Corded, cordless and robot vacuum cleaners<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Laptop computer<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Front-mounted washing machine (porthole)<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Top loading washing machine<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Dishwashers<\/span><\/li>\n
              • High-pressure cleaner<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Smartphone<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Television<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Electric lawnmower<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                \u00a0<\/p>\n

                For smartphones, a European reparability index is being created. Unfortunately, these two indices are not based on the same calculation method. <\/span><\/p>\n

                [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=\u201dWhat are the limits of the reparability index?\u201d _builder_version=\u201d4.20.2\u2033 _module_preset=\u201ddefault\u201d global_colors_info=\u201d{}\u201d open=\u201doff\u201d]<\/p>\n

                .Many entities have pointed out the limitations of the reparability index. As experts in the field of reparability and sustainability, our company, Ethikis, was one of the groups involved in the construction of the reparability index. <\/span>
                \n<\/span>Right from the start of the consultation process, we raised three points of criticism.<\/span><\/p>\n

                The notion of self-declaration<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

                History has taught us that some companies can be resourceful in circumventing regulations. Even if 99.9% of producers calculate their indexes sincerely, the risk of a DieselGate-style scandal remains high. The DGCCRF has the necessary authority to check the veracity of the scores communicated by producers and to impose penalties in the event of fraud. <\/span><\/p>\n

                However, the financial penalties remain low in relation to the stakes.<\/span><\/p>\n

                Lack of weighting of criteria in the index<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

                An electric lawnmower rated 8.7\/10 but with no spare parts available. This seems completely illogical, but above all it\u2019s a far cry from the objectives of the index. To counter this problem, the French Ministry for Ecological Transition recently announced an update of the criteria incorporating exclusion scores and weighting mechanisms: essential!<\/span><\/p>\n

                The risk of collision with reliability<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

                Above all, consumers want products that are reliable and won\u2019t break down. Encouraging repairable products is an excellent thing, but we must be careful not to steer consumers towards less durable products. <\/span><\/p>\n
