Circular Economy of Plastics

23
The "circular economy" has gone from being a fringe topic "for the distant future" to the core concept of the paradigm shift among designers and developers. Traditional product development processes, established material applications and production forms as well as linear business models reach their limits when it comes to circular economy and circular design. Large and small companies have recognised: "circular" business models are needed.
