What if what we consider waste was simply a resource in the wrong place? Circular economy in Switzerland

ecoconception.ch explores the possibilities of reuse, recovery and transformation for resources that could still be useful.

We are interested in materials, objects and resources that leave a circuit even though they may still have value. The idea is simple: observe, understand and connect the right resources with new uses.

A resource. A new use. A new loop.
01

A renewable resource

Use renewable raw materials or resources managed sustainably, while integrating eco-design from the very beginning. Choosing materials carefully can reduce waste, preserve resources and support a more circular economy in Switzerland.

02

A new and useful use

Reuse, repair or repurpose an object to extend its useful life and prevent it from becoming waste. Giving products, materials and objects a second life helps reduce resource consumption and encourages more sustainable uses.

03

A new circular loop

Recycle and recover materials to transform used products into new resources. Material recovery and recycling can help close the loop, reduce waste and keep valuable materials in circulation for longer.
