Recycling and reincorporating by-products into processes for a circular economy

The circular economy pursues the reduction of waste and the reuse of resources. Considering the complete life cycle of products, from the procurement of raw materials to the end of their useful life, and their reincorporation into production systems capable of incorporating these wastes, in a recirculated value chain for sustainable consumption. Encouraging the design of products for the complete reuse or recycling of the materials of which they are composed. Thus promoting more sustainable and competitive business models, as well as collaboration between the different actors in the value chain.
