The assessment tool CRL was presented to the participants by Fraunhofer CCPE compact.

With CRL as a Self-Check, companies can test how far principles of the Circular Economy are already included in their products and product systems. As a result, they get suggestions in the areas of product design, business model, end-of-life management, and closing-the-loop. CCPE experts presented the application of this tool online and on the product example child seat. This was followed by a panel discussion with keynote speeches on the topic of sustainability assessment and an experience report on the CRL assessment of electronic devices.

The event series Fraunhofer CCPE compact is an exchange platform between cluster research and plastics industry and offers participants insights and recommendations for action around the topic of Circular Economy.

Participants who missed this event can test the Self-Check to the Circular Readiness Level® at any time and free of charge at CCPE Self-check of the Circular Readiness Level® (fraunhofer.de).
