Growing your business.
Growing our environment.

Circular economy is about moving away from the prevailing throwaway culture and finding ways to make better use of our resources. A circular economy strives to maintain the value of materials and products for as long as possible, minimise waste and resource use, create new values from products when they reach the end of their life, and reduce negative environmental impacts and instead contribute to environmental growth.

The circular economy increases resource efficiency by closing loops of resource flows. Adopting circular economy practices has direct benefits for companies, such as:

• Greater resource supply security and cost stability
• Access to new markets and sources of income
• Brand protection
• Reduced waste management costs
• Meeting increasingly stringent and sometimes punitive regulations

Half of business leaders in the world are already looking to join the circular economy, from multi-nationals to SMES and new start-ups.

However, embedding circular economy practices into business operations is not without challenges. Knowledge about circular economy and available technologies may be limited, and it can be difficult to find time to inventory the necessary details for an informed decision. Accessing capital for circular economy innovations can also pose a hurdle. Finding customers for waste outputs or reliable suppliers of recovered resources isn’t always straight forward either. Often new collaborations are required when joining the circular economy.

Tevi can support companies to overcome these challenges and help them to capitalise on the business opportunities offered by the circular economy.
