Manufacturing, construction, fashion, electronics, and packaging see the highest returns. However, any business with significant material flows, waste streams, or asset-intensive operations can benefit. Service industries can also leverage circular principles through Product-as-a-Service models and sharing platforms.
How does circular economy relate to sustainability reporting requirements?

It's about fundamentally rethinking how value is created, delivered, and captured in ways that restore natural systems.
