Compelling evidence that people want repairable products

November 26, 2018 EcoVadis


There is strong evidence showing that UK and European citizens want longer lasting and more repairable products, on the eve of an important European member state vote and the UK’s Waste Strategy.


EcoVadis's insight:

The concept of a ‘Circular Economy’ has been growing in prominence over the past few decades, particularly as corporate social responsibility has become increasingly integrated into mainstream business strategy. This trend is likely to continue as the current linear economic system is challenged by growing resource scarcity.There are clear signs that major consumer goods companies are pushing to find more environmentally friendly solutions for their packaging needs.
