Circular Economy
Efficient use of valuable materials

"Our process-product-applications approach gives us an unparalleled vision and unique capabilities to tackle circularity issues whilst conceiving new multilayered components for batteries or electrolyzers. By already anticipating second life or recyclability at end of life we integrate resource efficiency and eco-design in our daily work."
Bernard Vanderheyden
Unit Manager Metal Production and Platform Coordinator Circular Economy
Circularity starts with efficient use and lean production of materials and evolves around maximum value retention to guarantee durability and sustainability.
Next to optimized production processes, fast-developing tracing and sorting technologies, solutions for reuse or remanufacturing become more impactful. Recycling is only the ultimate step in closing the loop of locally sourced, efficiently produced, and maximum reused materials.
