Circular Economy Map of Scotland

A circular economy is the most practical way to create resilience and growth for our future, ensuring nothing goes to waste and everything has value. By adopting circular practices, businesses in Scotland can create commercial opportunities and rewire the economy.

About the map

We are excited to share our work to illustrate how circular practices are taking root in Scotland, helping to build a more sustainable future economy. 

Explore this interactive map to connect with; learn and take inspiration from; and support local businesses and organisations already making changes to embrace the opportunities of circular practices. Thanks 

This map is a work-in-progress and will be regularly updated. If your organisation employs circular practices and you would like to be featured on our map, please get in touch with us.
