Edited sentence: As a consequence, CMF design can also enhance the sustainability of industrial production cycles, in which the use of energy for the chromatic and emotional characterization of the products is significantly high.From the outset, the open nature of CMF design has favoured the adoption of “soft” product re-design techniques, based on periodic updating of the product’s identity without directly affecting its form, with evident and significant advantages in terms of production.In addition to a more regular coordination and harmonization of color standards, CMF design makes it possible to obtain the maximum in variation of product identity with the minimum use of color, material and decorative resources, thus its adoption can bring about a significant simplification of logistics, a substantial reduction in development costs and the storage of semi-finished raw materials, as for example in the case of plastic granules that are already in the finalized color.In the same way it allows the implementation of solutions able to extend the working life of products and product systems that would otherwise be condemned to an inexorable emotional obsolescence.The international success of the practice of CMF design has meant that emotional themes such as product identity are no longer the prerogative of sectors such as fashion or styling, governed by the rules of marketing,  but can now take their place within a more general “design-driven  culture”.This meta-design approach contributes to the creation of products that are emotionally enhanced, that is chromatically manufactured to satisfy the  intersubjective choice  of precise user groups.Through the use of CMF design, industrial products cease to be characterized by colors that remain fixed throughout the production cycle, and instead can be manufactured in varying ranges of colors, materials and finish
