What is a circular economy?
A Circular Rubber Economy is an economic system designed to minimize waste and make the most of rubber resources through processes like recycling, reuse, and sustainable production. Unlike the traditional linear economy, where rubber products are made, used, and then discarded, a circular rubber economy focuses on extending the life cycle of rubber materials. This is achieved by:
Design for circularity
In circular design, designers consider all stages of a product's lifecycle and ensure that it is sustainable from manufacturing to disposal.
Renewable materials
Recoverable, abiotic materials, replenished or purified by natural ecosystems on a human time scale (75-100 years), therefore excluding excluding fossil materials.
Recycling technologies
The activity of treating materials or products using special industrial processes so that they can be used again.
Applying circular materials
Introducing renewable and recycled materials as substitutes for geologically formed or fossilized materials, while aiming to maintain mechanical properties fit for purpose.

Our Solutions Stage
Explore a curated collection of innovative materials, services and technologies that are aimed at increasing circularity of rubber materials. Whether you are searching for biobased raw materials, recycled raw materials, recycling technologies or success stories that show applications of them, our solutions stage provides the right inspiration and knowledge you need to make informed decisions.
We strive to
collaborate
If we are to change the rubber industry globally, we need to act as an collective. We feel empowered by our network of companies with all unique capabilities, and together we can tackle challenges one cannot do by themselves. Collaborate in a Circular Rubber Project, co-organize inspiring webinars or guest lectures, or raise awareness for rubber circularity in your industry or area.
