Manufacturing
Pressure on manufacturers to adopt a more circular approach that improves product durability, reusability, upgradability, and reparability is growing. Our team help manufacturers in a range of sectors to develop new business models and reduce environmental impacts.
With people worldwide increasingly aware of the environmental impacts of products they purchase, there is huge pressure on manufacturers to adopt a more circular approach that improves product durability, reusability, upgradability, and reparability.
This is being driven by a variety of policy initiatives including: The EU’s proposed Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), the EU’s proposed Green Claims Directive, EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility), and structured reporting of non-financial impacts.
Decarbonisation projects designed to meet government and science-based targets are also extremely challenging for manufacturers, whose impact is often connected to fixed, existing infrastructure.
Our approach to the manufacturing sector
At Eunomia, our multi-technical teams are uniquely experienced and qualified to prepare you for this rapidly evolving landscape.
Our deep policy expertise comes from projects such as the assessment we led for the European Commission on the circular economy potential of EU Product Policy – a precursor to ESPR.
By bringing together insights from our circular, low carbon, and natural economy teams, we help manufacturers in a range of sectors to develop new business models and reduce environmental impacts.
