There has been lots of sustainability support delivered to other business sectors but the design sector remains underrepresented in this support.

There are a number of key barriers to the implementation of ecodesign by the Welsh design sector. These include:

• lack of control over the design brief• low confidence to introduce sustainability considerations to

design specification • lack of readily accessible and useful information• incoherent and inconsistent drivers from the public sector e.g.

procurement

The key enablers would be:

• networks and knowledge exchange• clear market signals – pricing, reducing risk and legislation• procurement process that are supportive of SME constraints• collaborative pitching
