Extended Producer Responsibility (UPV) means that producers and importers are (partly) responsible for the waste management of the products they put on the market. Therefore, it is important to design products circularly. In many sectors there is legislation for this (in the making). For example, European Legislation has decided on extensions and higher targets for recycling, packaging and landfill: e.g. 70% recycling for packaging by 2030. UPV's starting point for Circular Design is: that the whole cycle is included in the design of a business proposition. Closing the chain is therefore central. Besides examples per product group, opportunities for eco-modulation for tariffs are also given. UPV with eco-modulation stimulates innovation and waste management costs go down through eco-innovation.

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.
