The volume is meant to be an excellent springboard for further discussion and research into new frameworks of best practices in view of achieving more socially responsible and sustainable organizations in a not-so-distant future.
Circular economy can serve as a key building block for the sustainability targets of manufacturing companies. Although the term itself has long been established, we see that proper implementation of a circular economy model across entire manufacturing value chains is still lacking and remains a challenge for companies. However, there are clearly visible and good examples of circular economy standards which have already been applied and are generating value among multiple layers.
- Helps readers easily identify state-of-the-art advances in the circular economy as applied to the manufacturing industry
- Adopts an interdisciplinary perspective, offering insights into both engineering and management components of the whole circular economy approach
