Creating circular business models

Embracing circular economy is no longer just a trend – it’s a necessity for businesses in the packaging, paper, pulp and tissue industries looking to thrive. Companies are responsible for making the best use of broadly available and scarce resources. Keeping materials in use as long as possible reduces the environmental footprint and often makes a lot of economic sense.

Looking at what your organisation has already achieved in this context is a good starting point. As a next step scalability, profitability and trade-offs need to be evaluated. By doing this, the possibilities within your organisation but also along the entire value chain need to be considered.

There might be more circular opportunities: By mapping out relevant material in- and outflows and a good brainstorming with your team – I am sure you have many experts in your team – might generate new ideas that nobody in isolation has thought of thus far.
