LUMINO on Clay – Coil (CLC0324-104)

1. Materials Used:
   • Sustainable Materials: If the LUMINO on Clay - Coil is made from natural, biodegradable, or recycled materials, this contributes to its sustainability. For example, clay is a natural material that can be sustainably sourced and is biodegradable. Using coils made from recycled metal or other sustainable materials can further reduce environmental impact.
2. Production Process:
   • Energy Efficiency: A production process that uses less energy or relies on renewable energy sources can significantly reduce the carbon footprint. Techniques that minimize waste and use eco-friendly methods also contribute to sustainability.
3. Lifecycle Impact:
   • Durability and Longevity: Products designed to last longer reduce the need for frequent replacements, which in turn lowers the overall carbon footprint. A durable product means fewer resources are used over time.
4. Packaging:
   • Eco-friendly Packaging: Using minimal, recyclable, or biodegradable packaging materials can reduce waste and the carbon footprint associated with packaging production and disposal.
5. Transportation:
   • Local Sourcing: Sourcing materials locally reduces transportation emissions. If the LUMINO on Clay - Coil product is produced and distributed locally, this can contribute to a lower carbon footprint.
6. End-of-Life Disposal:
   • Biodegradability and Recyclability: Products that can be easily recycled or biodegraded at the end of their life cycle reduce environmental impact and landfill waste.

1. Clay as a Sustainable Material:
   • Clay is abundant and naturally occurring, requiring minimal processing compared to synthetic materials. It can be sustainably harvested and processed using low-energy methods, contributing to a lower environmental impact .
2. Energy-efficient Production:
   • Using energy-efficient kilns and renewable energy sources in the production of clay products can significantly reduce the carbon footprint. Innovations in kiln technology, such as electric kilns powered by renewable energy, contribute to sustainability .
3. Lifecycle Analysis:
   • Conducting a lifecycle analysis (LCA) of the product can provide insights into its overall environmental impact. An LCA considers the entire lifecycle of the product, from raw material extraction to disposal, helping to identify areas for reducing the carbon footprint .
4. Biodegradability:
   • Products made from natural materials like clay are biodegradable, meaning they can break down naturally without harming the environment. This reduces the long-t
