Abstract
Abstract: The discussions about sustainable development are dominated by preventive, environmentally sound measures to reduce material flows and energy consumption. The reductions should be achieved through technical and organisational means: the technical optimisation of the production process, the development of environmental compatible products and through utility-oriented design. The technical improvements should be entirely supported by the introduction and dissemination of new eco-efficient service concepts (sharing, leasing or renting of products, repair-services, re-marketing etc.). Eco-efficient services are offered to firms as well as to private users. But especially in the case of eco-efficient services geared toward households,little is known about the needs, motives, attitudes, knowledge, experiences, restrictions etc. of the private consumers. The paper summarizes the results of recent investigations which have been conducted on these questions. Additional to that, it points out further sociological research questions in the field of eco-efficient services.;
