Circular Revenue Models

A circular economy, as an alternative to a linear economy. Circular revenue models keep resources in use for as long as possible, extracts the maximum value from them whilst in use, and recovers and regenerates products and materials at the end of each service life thereby reducing our dependency on natural resources and benefiting our social and environmental communities.

Our Circular Revenue Models service helps clients across industries from global life sciences to apparel to baby products disconnect revenue generation from environmental impact creation through circular revenue models such as resale, re-commerce, rental, leasing, and product-as-a-service (PaaS).

Circular Revenue Models Benefits and Opportunities 

• Optimising asset value: Global E-waste Monitor estimated global e-waste to contain roughly $55 billion worth of valuable recoverable materials, such as gold, silver, copper, platinum, palladium. Also the size of opportunity to use post-consumer plastic as feedstock is large. The North American polymers market is $47 billion annually in the US and Canada alone.
• Strengthening supply chain relationships to build resilience: With closer material loops, a successful circular economy strategy relies on new, more integrated engagement with suppliers and customers, strengthening business resilience and security of supply.
• Decoupling economic opportunity: to reach the Paris Commitment climate goals, we must decouple economic opportunity from carbon emissions. Doing so requires new, innovative circular business solutions. This presents new business opportunities. For example, the re-commerce market is projected to double in size over the next 3 years.
• Regenerating the natural environment: by moving to a regenerative, circular economic model, we can benefit from the natural resources our world provides whilst preserving them for future generations.
