Abstract

Product Service System (PSS) is one of the procedures used to control the environmental problems arising from products and demand for product consumption. The method is aimed at creating a business system that sells products and boosts services for the maximum benefit of consumers. However, the PSS concept has many dimensions in the context of economy, society, and environment which are prioritized differently. This research is aimed at studying the literature review of PSS based on the environmental significance. The objective of this research is to analyze and classify the PSS factors in the environmental dimension and explain the factors affecting the creation of PSS strategy.

Keywords: Product Service System; Design for Environment; Product Service Design Strategies; Sustainable Consumption.
