Design for Disassembly in Furniture: The Principles That Make Furniture Repairable, Adaptable, and Recyclable

Design for Disassembly (DfD) in furniture engineering means creating pieces that can be easily taken apart for repair, adaptation, or recycling, using mechanical fasteners and modular components instead of permanent glues. This approach extends furniture lifespan, reduces waste, and offers benefits like repairability and adaptability, aligning with circular economy principles and evolving regulations.
