Quality Austria shows ways to implement the circular economy in companies

Quality Austria has published a white paper that deals with the successful implementation of the Circular Economy (CE) in companies.

The circular economy plays an important role in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Quality Austria shows how companies can achieve their sustainability goals through circular strategies.

Key points include the customisation of product designs, the introduction of new certifications such as Cradle to Cradle and the development of quality services through vertical integration and partnerships.

The circular economy goes far beyond simple recycling and requires a comprehensive systems perspective. The white paper suggests using digitalisation to enable smart circularity and transforming business models to move from product-centric to service-centric approaches. By implementing circular economy-orientated strategies, companies can strengthen their competitiveness, create new jobs and improve their environmental sustainability.

Quality Austria has been offering training and certification products since 2019 to support companies in implementing the circular economy.
