Why circular manufacturing is hard for SMEs

Circular solutions already exist, but many SMEs still struggle to access and implement them in practice.

Fragmented tools

Relevant technologies exist, but they are scattered across providers and projects.

Complex integration

SMEs need practical solutions that fit existing production environments.

High entry barriers

SMEs need practical solutions that fit existing production environments.
