Products can be designed to reduce the impact of transport on the enviroment. This can be done by:
Decrease the amount of packaging
Reduce size of products and flat-packing products where possible
Wrap everything in bubble wrap and stop using cardboard boxes
Use cargo planes to transport products instead of cargo ships
Select the statements that describe one-off production
Products produced are unique
Often used to make standard components
Lower cost than mass-manufactured products
Requires highly skilled workers
