A circular economy keeps materials, products, and packaging in the highest value use for as long as possible
Our Approach
We help organizations advance circularity by building and implementing changes to business models and processes, products and packaging, and supplier engagement to:
- Explore: baseline/inventory, life cycle assessment (LCA), and chemicals of concern
- Define: strategy, goals, and policies
- Activate: roadmap, guides, innovation, and supplier engagement
Example projects (see our case studies)
- Sustainable packaging baseline and strategy
- Life cycle assessment
- Sustainable innovation strategy and tools
- EPR data management and strategy
- Supplier engagement and guidance
- Sustainable chemistry
The Circular Economy is based on three principles, driven by design. Ellen MacArthur Foundation (EMF)
The need for action
- Advancing climate and nature strategies. Products and packaging can have lower impacts when designed for circularity, such as with recycled content, reuse/refill, repair/refurbish, and resale, rental, and service models.
- Getting ahead of and complying with regulations. Extended Product Responsibility (EPR) and related regulations have increasingly been expecting more progress from more data to more recycled content and reusable/recyclable/compostable packaging, along with related product solutions.
- Market expectations. Consumers, customers, and investors are looking for products and packaging that are more circular, especially shifting to reusable, recyclable, or compostable packaging. Circularity is an important source of product innovation.
