Circularity is embedded throughout forest industry value chains through renewable raw materials, recycling and efficient resource use. Forest-based products can be reused, recycled and recovered while helping reduce dependence on fossil-based resources. Bio-based circular solutions demonstrate how sustainability and industrial competitiveness can be advanced simultaneously.
FFIF key message:
EU circular economy policy must look beyond recycled content and fully recognise renewability, recyclability, carbon storage and fossil substitution as core elements of circularity.
