How can the manufacturing industry manage the transition to a circular economy? The report "Manufacturing: The Future is Circular" describes the current challenges facing the industry. These include rising material consumption, increasing demand for critical raw materials and growing waste streams. The circular economy is presented as a solution to address these problems.
The report emphasises that circular business models that focus on longevity and reuse can significantly reduce environmental impacts. Real-life examples show how companies in different sectors, from wind farms to batteries for electric mobility, are implementing circular strategies.
Important steps include the development of new business models, the promotion of international cooperation and the adaptation of political framework conditions.
