Unlock the circular economy: Key tools and strategies
Redefining product design
In the Circular Economy, product design takes center stage. It's about creating products and packaging that seamlessly reenter the value-added cycle when it's time for repair or refurbishment. This necessitates a complete rethink of production facilities, manufacturing processes, packaging, and logistics concepts. Product cycles are shrinking as components become more modular. Questions to ask yourself that our white paper dives into are:
How can product design drive circularity?
What role does complexity play in logistics?
How can you expand your service portfolio effectively?
Complexity and compartmentalization in logistics
The Circular Economy will reshape the roles of shippers and logistics service providers. Merely delivering a product won't suffice; the ability to facilitate returns or repairs will be equally critical. Article numbers will evolve into pieces of a product's mosaic, carrying detailed information about material, composition, and product cycle. Supply chain networks will expand to encompass repair, refurbishment, and returns specialists, making logistics more intricate and compartmentalized.
