New chemical recycling process preserves material performance without downgrading. Sustainability is becoming more important to consumers. As a result, manufacturers and engineers are beginning to look for more ways to build sustainability into the life cycle of products. One concept gaining traction is the circular economy. According to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, an organization dedicated to promoting a circular economy is one that focuses on the principles of designing out waste and pollution, keeping products and materials in use, and regenerating natural systems. For products made from commodity plastics, a transition toward a more circular economy could mean less packaging, a transition from nonrecyclable materials such as composites or multi-materials to more recyclable alternatives, and an increased use of recycled materials.

Supply Chain visibility and sustainability are two of the most important topics in supply chain today.  So when I came across Sony Visilion’s Head of IoT Tracking Erik Lund I knew I had to get him on the podcast.  Fortunately he was delighted to join and we had a great discussion about IoT tracking and the visibility implications of that, and we also talked about the sustainability implications of seeing the data associated with your shipments.  As usual, I learned loads, and I hope you do too…  Oh, and this is one of the first podcast episodes that I have created chapters for. If you find them useful, do let me know ([email protected]) and I’ll make the effort to do it more often!
