INNOVATIONS IN
CIRCULAR ECONOMY

So what is this all about?

We want to change our consumption patterns, they need to be smarter and more sustainable. We are driving innovations that simplifies wise decision making in our consumption. By tracking our products and resources we can drive real change. We can collect and send product data anonymously back to manufacturers and maybe most importantly reuse, recycle and let our products have a second(or third) life. 

Traceability and transparency made easy with the help of digitalisation. These are our main ingredients for a truly functional circular economy. We aim to contribute and make life as we live it both easier and more sustainable. Giving material an identity will give us the possibility to use and reuse our resources in a more responsible way.

By setting a new standard with the UN goal 12 as a guideline we can change our consumption patterns radically.
