The Business World and Sustainable Development Association - SKD has launched the Turkish pillar of an innovative project on the cyclic economy. American Sustainable Development Business Council - Developed by US BCSD in Davos 2016, the world’s first cycle economy award program under the ‘The Circulars’ is now in Turkey.

The project is basically a digital environment created to be the production of raw materials, side products, production residues and other company of used materials. We can consider this environment as e-commerce sites that bring buyers and sellers of the second hand products, which is most simple, widely used today. For the reuse of materials, there are services such as consulting, routing, and with the direction of educational/information, these systems go beyond. Materials that use the cloud technology are a major contribution to the circular economy under a model of ‘business-to-business’ by changing traditional recycling models, waste management systems and even ‘waste’ concept.
