One of the first steps is to observe and document the step-by-step use of the product by conducting a thorough task analysis. Further, material durability can be optimized by selecting polymer formulations with a high resistance to environmental factors such as UV light, chemicals including salt water, acids and plasticizers, temperature extremes from boiling, autoclaving and automatic dishwashing, and unintended storage stresses like exposure to heat in a car trunk.
