Start with the job, then choose the material
A practical brief turns an attractive material sample into a decision you can defend.
ExploreRepair planning
Repair deserves a place in the brief.
Keep the defect, competent assessment, repair action and release decision together. A repair plan can end with useful equipment and no new purchase.
Describe the defect
Capture the component, symptoms, condition and relevant use history. Preserve an evidence reference without exposing private images publicly.
Choose responsibility
Ask an appropriate competent person or manufacturer to assess structural, electrical, tension or other consequential risks.
Plan the practical work
Record parts, owner, lead time, handling and the inspection needed after repair.
Release with evidence
A completed repair task does not itself confirm suitability. Record the actual inspection and next-use decision.
Useful field guides
Give the finished assembly its own passport
Keep ink, coatings, adhesives, laminates and fixings with the substrate record.
ExploreRecycled content and recyclability answer different questions
