The circular economy aims to completely eliminate waste by changing the way we use resources. This can be achieved by extending the lifespan and use of materials, rethinking and redefining products and business processes, developing innovative solutions and service models, and encouraging more sustainable consumption patterns. The European Union aims to double the total share of recycled materials used in its economy between 2020 and 2030. Recycled materials accounted for 11.8% of materials used in 2023, compared to 10.7% in 2010.
