Consortial Benchmark ‘Circular Products Logistics’

How the Manufacturing Industry Ensures Its Value Creation

Compare yourself to leading companies and identify where you stand today – and which levers currently have the greatest impact on value creation, resilience, and growth for your products through circular economy strategies.

The circular economy is becoming a strategic success factor for the manufacturing industry: Rising raw material costs, regulatory requirements, and uncertain supply chains call for new approaches to securing materials and extending product life cycles – in close collaboration with logistics service providers and retailers.

The ‘Circular Products Logistics’ benchmark initiative demonstrates how companies, together with their value chain partners, can create economic value and strengthen their resilience through circular strategies, lifecycle services, and integrated take-back processes.

Find out how your company stacks up against leading industrial, logistics, and retail companies, and which levers have the greatest impact.
