Our focus means moving away from a linear “take, make, waste” model towards a more sustainable approach that reuses and recycles resources.
But who are we talking about when we say “mechanical companies?”
For REUSE2030, mechanical companies encompass a broad range of businesses involved in:
- Manufacturing machinery and equipment: This includes everything from large-scale industrial machinery to smaller components used in various industries.
- Fabricating metal products: From tanks and containers to tools and hardware, these companies often have a significant impact on the circular economy due to the volume of metal they use.
- Producing rubber and plastic products: These materials are widely used in the mechanical sector, making it crucial to find sustainable solutions for their production and end-of-life management.
- Repairing and installing machinery and equipment: Keeping existing machinery operational and ensuring its efficient disposal is essential for a circular economy.
