Circular Economy
The circular economy is based on a premise of more balanced and qualified growth, which considers and promotes new ways of producing, consuming and relating to society and the environment. It is based on a design that does not generate waste or pollution from the beginning, keeping products and materials in use and regenerating natural systems.

About
About
The CEBDS Circular Economy Working Group discusses circular economy practices and initiatives as business solutions to contribute to the redesign of production, in order to reduce or eliminate waste and pollution throughout the production chain; extend the life cycle and optimize the use of products and materials to their maximum value, in addition to regenerating natural systems.
The private sector plays a fundamental role in this process of change, as it has a direct influence on the production and consumption model, and this involves major changes in its business models. Changing the business model is not a trivial task, but it is a necessary path for the circular economy to reach its full potential for business while reducing environmental impacts and risks.
