ISO 15270:2008 is a standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that outlines the principles and guidelines for managing the environmental aspects and impacts of products over their entire life cycle.

The standard provides a framework for organizations to systematically identify and assess the environmental impacts of their products at each stage of their life cycle, from raw material extraction and processing, through production, use, and disposal.

ISO 15270:2008 emphasizes the importance of considering environmental factors in product design and development, as well as in decision-making processes related to procurement, manufacturing, marketing, and end-of-life management. The standard also includes guidance on how to communicate environmental information about products to stakeholders.

Overall, ISO 15270:2008 aims to help organizations minimize the environmental impact of their products and improve their environmental performance by adopting a life cycle perspective.
