Shaping Tomorrow’s Value Creation

Making circularity work by default

Natural resources are finite, yet demand keeps rising. Transitioning from take-make-waste to a circular economy is now essential for competitiveness, resilience and sustainability goals.

Smart design, solution-oriented data and adaptive digital infrastructures let companies cut resource use and emissions while opening new revenue streams. This is the focus of our Circular Innovation Lab.

Building on Infosim®‘s strengths in network analysis, service management, automation and IT security, we team up with leading organizations in the industry to turn bright ideas into working solutions that keep materials and products in the loop.

We support you by:

  • Building interoperable data ecosystems — leveraging existing or purpose-built platforms and data-access for industry partners.
  • Capturing, validating and tracing data throughout the loop, giving each material and component a persistent digital identity.
  • Applying AI-powered diagnostics to qualify materials or parts and support recycling profitability.
  • Deploying flexible Digital Product Passport Integration, fully aligned with existing standards.
  • Building cross-supply-chain collaboration frameworks — connecting manufacturers and recyclers to share data, align standards and unlock circular opportunities together.

“If we really want to leverage the potential of AI to achieve the goals of the circular economy, we need to make more data accessible and usable now. There are enormous amounts of unutilized data available – from companies and science. With interoperability, intelligent linking and secure, easy-to-use tools, they can be brought to life. We are working on this.”
