The circular economy describes a world in which reuse through
repair, reconditioning and refurbishment is the prevailing social
and economic model. The business opportunities are huge but
developing product and service offerings and achieving competitive
advantage means rethinking your business model from early
creativity and design processes, through marketing and
communication to pricing and supply. Designing for the Circular
Economy highlights and explores 'state of the art' research and
industrial practice, highlighting CE as a source of: new business
opportunities; radical business change; disruptive innovation;
social change; and new consumer attitudes. The thirty-four chapters
provide a comprehensive overview of issues related to product
circularity from policy through to design and development. Chapters
are designed to be easy to digest and include numerous examples. An
important feature of the book is the case studies section that
covers a diverse range of topics related to CE, business models and
design and development in sectors ranging from construction to
retail, clothing, technology and manufacturing. Designing for the
Circular Economy will inform and educate any companies seeking to
move their business models towards these emerging models of
sustainability; organizations already working in the circular
economy can benchmark their current activities and draw inspiration
from new applications and an understanding of the changing social
and political context. This book will appeal to both academia and
business with an interest in CE issues related to products,
innovation and new business models.
