Michigan Sustainable Business Forum is working to expand opportunities for Michigan businesses and institutions to participate in the development of a circular economy and decarbonize through investments in recycled content and lower carbon products and components. The Forum has convened a multidisciplinary working group of industrial design influencers to forward collaboration between the design community and the industry to create a framework to provide expertise on the use and practical limitations of recycled content in manufacturing operations, supply chains, procurement and other end uses.
This luncheon will introduce the results of that work and share how local businesses are achieving success through demand-side solutions that incorporate post-consumer recycled materials.
It will also introduce guidelines and opportunities for businesses and institutions to explore similar initiatives, and highlight several local case studies.
