The term appears in environmental discussions, policy documents, business reports, urban planning, and everyday language when comparing practices, products, or strategies.

Morphology and related forms: Fenntarthatóbb is created by adding the suffix -bb to fenntartható. The corresponding superlative is legfenntarthatóbb. The form can modify nouns (egy fenntarthatóbb megoldás) or participate in comparative constructions (ez a megoldás fenntarthatóbb, mint az előző).
