Use the power of the chain to effectively design circularly

If we want to use raw materials more sustainably and efficiently, it is very important that companies work together within the chain. Also called chain collaboration. By embracing this collaboration, designers can reduce their impact on the environment while improving the quality and sustainability of their products.

Each party within the chain contributes to making the entire chain more sustainable and thus the life span of the product. This is how companies can realize the transition to a circular economy. But companies and designers face several questions and challenges when they establish a chain collaboration.

At the May 24, 2023 Expert Café, we explored the concept of Chain Collaboration . This was an online session for designers to discuss how they seek collaboration with the chain around a material or product flow in the circular economy.

CIRCO

The circular economy does not arise by itself. CIRCO (a program of TKI-CLICKNL) focuses on getting a new market moving. CIRCO therefore activates - with the support of the government - entrepreneurs and creative professionals to (re)design products, services and business models in order to then do circular business.
