Circular Economy
Circle is the new line
The circular economy is an economy where we have the mindset and tools to tackle a broad range of environmental threats, from climate change to phosphate and nitrate cycle degradation and biodiversity loss. It’s a big systems shift that will let us build a more equitable society that is more economically resilient.
Or circular economy focus is in product, plant and site design, and process and systems re-engineering for complex organisations.
Rethinking material and resource flows in business
Practical circular economy techniques and training for business
Circular economy perspectives are a powerful tool for modelling a broad range of business processes relating to production and consumption in order to minimise consumption of new raw materials. On a practical level, circular economy models prioritise mechanisms such as sharing or leasing over ownership, reuse and repair over disposal, and repurposing and recycling existing equipment, space, materials, products, even intellectual property as long as possible. At its best, circular economy thinking is transformational for an organisation and can deliver significant bottom line benefits as well as improved customer perception. Our expertise and focus around circular economy practices relate principally to manufacturing and supply chain.
