Scaling the circular economy requires more companies to launch circular products and services, but many competitors transitioning towards the circular economy face similar barriers to scale. One way to address this is commercial collaboration, where businesses work together on issues that are not tied to their competitive advantage. In this episode, we’ll hear from Sarah Dodge and Mark Buckley from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation about how this can help to scale a circular economy. We’ll also explore how one initiative has helped address a bottleneck in post-consumer recycling. Hear how companies from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation's Plastics Mission worked together to develop a unified vision and enable high-quality plastic waste sorting at scale with HolyGrail 1.0. This evolved into HolyGrail 2.0, where joint investment in R&D was crucial in helping it get from concept to market in just a few years. To discuss the project, Sander Defruyt, Lead of Strategy & Thought Leadership for the Plastics Mission, is joined by Gian De Belder, Technical Director of Packaging and Sustainability at Procter & Gamble, and Margherita Trombetti, Project Manager at the European Brands Association (AIM). Watch the full episode to learn how: 👨‍🔬 Cross-value chain collaboration was essential to align on the technology and achieve scale 📈 Growing interest allowed participation to grow from 31 companies in HolyGrail 1.0 to 176 in 2.0 📞 The European Brands Association (AIM) facilitated the governance, confidentiality, and communications of 2.0 Learn more about this business-led partnership below: https://www.ellenmacarthurfoundation.org/circular-examples/holygrail-2-0-uniting-the-value-chain-to-advance-sorting-technology And explore the full commercial collaboration collection here: https://www.ellenmacarthurfoundation.org/commercial-collaboration-a-powerful-driver-for-the-circular-economy If you enjoyed this episode, please leave us a review or a comment on Spotify or YouTube.

Each year millions of tonnes of clothes are produced, worn, and thrown away. Every second, the equivalent of a rubbish truck load of clothes is burnt or buried in landfill. By considering the whole system surrounding their designs, creatives have the power to transform the fashion industry into one where clothing and accessories do not become harmful waste. In this episode we will be exploring what circular design for fashion means, and speak to creatives who are already doing it. Circular Design Programme Manager, Elodie Rousselot will also join us to explore the Foundation’s new book, “Circular Design for fashion” which can be used as a guide to empower creatives who would like to start the journey towards circular design and redefine the future of fashion Speakers featured: Marina Testino, Creative Director and Artivist at Point Off View, Inc.

In 2010, when the Ellen MacArthur Foundation was launched with the mission to accelerate the transition towards the circular economy, the term could hardly be found besides in Chinese policy. As the concept has continue gain traction, particularly in Europe, China remains a front runner in circular innovation as a country. During the 2018 Summit, Jocelyn Bleriot had the opportunity to sit down with the country's circular economy director, Mr Yang Chun Ping, to the history of the policies and its strategic importance to the country's socio-economic development today. The 2018 Summit took place at The Roundhouse in London on Thursday June 21st. Speakers discussed big ideas and world-views re-shaping how we view our economy, the role of digital technologies in making the previously unimaginable possible and shared stories of disruptive realities in business, cities and policy already happening today.

Building circular business models - where products are rented, repaired, resold and remade - is key to transforming our economy from a take, make, waste linear system, to a circular one. In this episode of the Circular Economy Show, we’re seeing what this looks like in practice with Canadian outdoor clothing and equipment company Arc’teryx. Pippa heads to Arc’teryx’s flagship store in London to learn how the business is bringing repair in-store. Seb speaks to Katie Wilson, the company’s Director of Social and Environmental Sustainability, to hear about the strategic decisions behind this pivot. In this episode hear about: ♻️ How Arc’teryx’s in-store ReBIRD service centres work for the business and customers 🫶🏻 How ReBIRD is fostering deeper customer loyalty and making products accessible to new customer bases 🧥 The strategic decisions behind Arc’teryx’s shift to circular business models 👀 The operational hurdles of implementing circular business models at scale Arc’teryx is a participant in the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Fashion ReModel.

Ellen MacArthur and Stella McCartney co-host the launch of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s new report A new textiles economy: Redesigning fashion's future. The report, created by the Circular Fibres Initiative which launched in May this year, calls for the fashion industry to adopt this new vision and create cross industry collaborations to achieve it. Clothes are an everyday necessity, and for many an important expression of individuality. Yet the industry’s current take-make-dispose model is the root cause of many environmental impacts and substantial economic value loss. Every second, the equivalent of one garbage truck of textiles is landfilled or burned. An estimated USD 500 billion value is lost every year due to clothing that’s barely worn and rarely recycled. If nothing changes, by 2050 the fashion industry will use up a quarter of the world’s carbon budget. As well as being wasteful, the industry is polluting: clothes release half a million tonnes of microfibres into the ocean every year, equivalent to more than 50 billion plastic bottles. Microfibres are likely impossible to clean up and can enter food chains.
