Applications & Circular Economy

Applications and circular economy link material functionality with lifecycle strategies: material use, recycling, reuse and sustainable design. Material selection, sorting and recycling technologies as well as life cycle assessments determine resource efficiency. Circular economy concepts aim for closed material loops, emission reduction and extended service life via modular and repair-friendly design.
