As an alternative to metal and metal inserts, high-density plastic materials with customizable specific gravity, which can range from 1.5 to 11, can be used for weighting and balancing. DESIGN STRATEGIES Figure 24: Applying an ecodesign approach Panel 1 summarizes application of ecodesign to the toothbrush. As shown in Panel 4, the body and handle are reusable to reduce waste, and the bristles are attached to a small modular component that can be replaced as needed.
