Eco Design

CONTRIBUTING TO REDUCE OUR ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT TOGETHER

Our products are there to support you every day and make your life easier, but the fact is that they consume resources and energy. When we produce them and when you use them. Discover our eco-design approach and how we can act together.

What is the eco-design approach by Tefal?

It is about offering you products with a reduced environmental impact, without compromising their performance or the services they provide to you every day.

.

So how do we do it?

It all starts with a better understanding of the environmental impact of our products, from the extraction of the resources needed to manufacture them, right to their end of life. To do this, we have carried our Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) on the majority of our product families.

Did you know?

For Groupe Seb products, the most significant carbon impacts come from the usage phase and the extraction of raw materials*.

Act together

Contributing to reduce the overall environmental footprint of our products is a shared approach: it is us, when we design and produce them. And it is also you, when you use them. Here are some simple actions to accompany your everyday use

Just what you need

Heat only the amount of water needed, this will consume less energy and the hot water will be ready much faster.

Use a lid for energy efficiency

A game-changing method: using a lid helps maintain the heat when cooking and boiling, requiring 25% less energy for faster cooking results

Cut down size, cut down energy

Dicing your food into smaller pieces delivers faster cooking results, cutting down on time and energy.

Smart laundry care

At the end of the wash cycle, quickly remove your clothes and hang them carefully when drying. Spending a few more seconds spreading your clothes out will save you precious minutes when ironing. Shorter ironing sessions = time and energy saved.

Don't mess with wires

To help your appliances last longer, avoid wrapping the cord around the device after use, as the tension could damage it prematurely.

Stay smooth

Use a non-abrasive sponge and mild detergent when washing your product to avoid premature wear.

Second life for your broken appliances

Appliance no longer working? Instead of throwing it in the bin or leaving it at the back of a cupboard, have it repaired or take it to the nearest recycling centre!

Give your pots and pans a second life by recycling them!

Did you know that stainless steel and aluminium are infinitely recyclable? Drop off your kitchen utensils at collection points or partner points of sale!
