Reconomy is an international circular economy specialist that combines technology, skills and incredible people to enable businesses to better manage their resources, helping reduce waste, optimise their supply chains, and contribute in a meaningful way toward the circular economy.
We're bending the edges of linear business models across the world, integrating circular economy strategies and processes into everyday operations. We have the tools, talent and technology that enable customers to harness the full and inherent value of their resources, with integrated global operations in over 80 countries across the world.
Our full range of capabilities are organized into 3 'loops': Recycle, Comply and Re-use, each providing opportunities for circularity within the wider resource cycle.
* Recycle loop is utilising the latest technology and data to enable customers to make the best possible use of their materials.
* Comply loop is enabling customers to solve increasingly complex environmental regulatory challenges using data, expert knowledge and thought leadership to drive business accountability across the globe.
* Re-use loop is providing intelligent technology platforms and agile delivery models for pre-retail logistics and product returns, fulfilment and processing, on behalf of many of Europe's largest retailers.
