First Report Published By CEID Working Group On Circular Economy For Packaging

The Circular Economy Initiative Deutschland, funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the participating companies, brings together economic, scientific and societal stakeholders.

The initiative aims to develop joint targets and a concrete plan to achieve a Circular Economy in Germany.

Within the CEID, three pertinent areas of study were identified for further research: Circular Business Models, Circular Batteries, and Circular Packaging.

For each of the aforementioned areas, a working group consisting of representatives from industry, academia and civil society was established.

Each working group investigated the potential of the Circular Economy for their relevant topic and compiled the results in a report.
