Traceable supply chains for a circular economy

Circularise is a supply chain traceability and transparency start-up founded in The Netherlands in 2016. Circularise’s Software system helps suppliers in chemicals and plastics, battery materials, metals, and other industries to share the environmental footprint of materials without risking their sensitive data.

By extension, it helps brands to get visibility into their own Scope 3 emissions and other metrics, which is aligned with the regulatory push around Digital Passports and the German Supply Chain Act aimed to be released in January 2023.

Our story

How we got here

We are Mesbah and Jordi, the co-founders of Circularise.

We started Circularise in 2016 after visiting a number of recyclers in the Netherlands. Before that we didn’t know that while products are sent to recycling plants, many resources end up being incinerated or, even worse, put in landfills.
‍
The reason is simple - recyclers don’t know what’s inside all these products. What materials have been used, what is their origin, are they hazardous? All these questions were left unanswered and that’s why we started Circularise - to become the information bridge for a circular economy.

With Circularise we strive to improve transparency and traceability across complex supply chains and enable a shift to a circular economy.

About Circularise

Problem
End-to-end Supply Chain Traceability holds the key to overcoming major challenges that society faces in the areas of Circular Economy, Environmental Pollution, Carbon Emissions.

But the race to Sustainability is held back by concerns around trust, privacy and confidentiality, as the available material data is often not accessible, proprietary or incomplete.
Solution
Circularise enables supply chain actors to share sensitive data without risking privacy and confidentiality.

To improve Resource Use, Verify Provenance, Conduct Carbon Footprint and Impact Assessments to unlock the potential of Circular Economy business models and to drive worldwide adoption.

The Circularise Mission

Our Values
We value privacy, transparency and sustainability. We do not feel that anyone should be the central authority of new transparent and circular supply chains.

That’s why we choose a public blockchain to support equality and trust among all supply chain actors.
Our mission
We created Circularise to radically shift the global economy to the circular model. We want to make it easier and more secure for people and organizations to exchange information about products and materials needed for sustainable living.
