CIRCOMOD industry and policy brief – Circular economy for machinery and equipment

This brief focuses on the underexplored potential of the machinery and equipment sector:
Carbon footprint evidence at the sectoral and technology levels are summarized, as well as cirular economy mitigation potential in industrial machinery.

Circularity and material efficiency of machinery and equipment are central for achieving a circular economy in Europe:

– 25-30% of metals use to produce machinery and equipment

– Production causes 5% of global carbon footprint

– 17% of Europe’s export by value
