Circular Economy Business Models

Design, Implementation, and Value Creation

About this book

Ready to move beyond the take-make-waste economy? This book is your definitive guide to the circular revolution. It shows why our current linear model is failing our planet and businesses. We explore core circular principles from the ground up. You will learn how to design better products using frameworks like Cradle to Cradle®. Discover innovative business models that prioritize performance over ownership, like Product-as-a-Service. See how to extend value through repair and remanufacturing. The book provides a deep dive into critical sectors. We show how to build circular cities , create a regenerative food system , and transform the fashion industry. We also tackle the waste challenges in packaging and renewable energy. Finally, we explore how digital technology and reverse logistics provide the essential backbone for this new, regenerative economy.

 

What sets this book apart is its practical, holistic approach. It moves beyond abstract theory to connect the dots between design, business models, and systemic enablers. Where other books may focus on one aspect, this guide provides a comprehensive journey. It links foundational design choices, like separating biological and technical materials , directly to the portfolio of business models they unlock, such as leasing and remanufacturing. By using detailed, real-world case studies from Kalundborg's industrial symbiosis to Singapore's green building policies and South Korea's food waste system, it provides a tangible, actionable playbook. This isn't just about why we need a circular economy; it's a strategic manual on how to design it, implement it across major industries, and create lasting economic and environmental value.
