Description
On average, 75% of a company’s carbon footprint is concentrated within its value chain, whether upstream or downstream. Natural resources used, production methods, transportation, product use, and end-of-life disposal: a large portion of emissions often falls outside the company’s direct scope.
This is precisely where circular business models can be a game-changer and create sustainable value. Refurbishment, remanufacturing, and the functional and collaborative economies make it possible to reduce carbon impact while strengthening the competitiveness and autonomy of the companies that implement them.
This segment shows how to move from observation to action: understanding where emissions occur in the value chain, identifying the circular models best suited to your business, and seeing how to transform them into concrete economic drivers.
