In a circular economy, products are designed for durability, upgradeability, reparability and reusability, with a view to reusing the materials from which
they are made after they reach the end of their life.
In the use phase, products are managed with a view to maximising their utilisation capacity and extending their useful life, thus maintaining their value for as long as possible. This is made possible by companies that develop new business models generating revenue streams from services rather than products while making a more efficient use of resources and/or giving new value to end-of-life products and materials.
Consumers use products efficiently and discard them in such a way that they
can be reused or, if this is technically or economically unfeasible, recycling operators turn them into secondary materials that can enter a new production-
consumption cycle.
This needs to be supported by the whole ecosystem, from enabling technologies and infrastructures to a form of market organisation that facilitates collaboration along and across value chains and a form of governance and regulation that encourages companies to adopt circular approaches to social norms that make the circular production-consumption patterns socially preferable.
This paradigm is in contrast with the linear economy which is based on the take-make-use-discard model. This is a model which maximises the amount of products produced and sold but does not focus on preserving the materials. Such an approach prevents effective collaboration along value chains and stimulates the throw-consumer culture with its noxious environmental consequences.
Like with any systemic change, the transition to a circular economy requires several elements of the system to change simultaneously. The inertia and resistance of the current linear economic systems prevent the transition from occurring. Concerted actions by a host of stakeholders are needed.
