Circular economy strategy
A circular economy strategy helps a company move from a linear “take-make-dispose” model to a sustainable economy, where materials and products remain in circulation for as long as possible. This can include, for example, the repairability and reuse of products, the utilization of raw materials in new products, and service models such as rental and sharing.
A well-designed CE strategy reduces waste, saves natural resources, and supports carbon-neutral growth – while improving the company’s economic competitiveness.
We help you design your own circular economy strategy for your company using the 10R framework:
- Refuse – identify unnecessary products
- Rethink – rethinkg how to make product use more efficient
- Reduce – reduce the use of materials and energy
- Reuse – reuse products
- Repair – fix broken products and extend their lifespan
- Refurbish – refurbish and upgrade old products
- Remanufacture – integrate product components that are still perfectly intact into new products with the same function
- Repurpose – give products a new purpose
- Recycle – recycle materials into new products
- Recover – recover energy and materials that cannot otherwise be recycled.
