The future is circular
How do we achieve a more circular economy? It depends entirely on the situation, but it is important to be creative and dare to challenge yourself and others.
We have chosen to work in areas that we consider to be very important components of circular business models and significant enablers of a more circular society.
We offer
Production and transport logistics
New logistics solutions are necessary for more circular material and product flows.
Business models and value chains
Supply chain management has never been as important as today.
Swedish upcycling – circular design
Design and circular economy together give worn-out products a new chance.
Circular technology development
New technology can either impede us or help us along the way to a more circular world.
