Cirmar is committed to accelerating the transition to a circular economy. Our team of innovators, strategists, and technologists empowers organisations with the insights and tools they need to design, manage, and optimise circular products and materials.
We envision a world where resources are continuously repurposed, waste is avoided, and sustainability is seamlessly integrated into every business model. Our mission is to establish circularity — giving companies the tools and metrics to measure and enhance their circular performance. Every step forward counts to make systems change.
“We don’t need legislation to take care of our future. Let’s make the circular economy work: with better design, next use solutions and strong business models.”
Frans Beckers – Founder
Why we believe the circular economy is worth realising:
The economics make sense: recovering material means sourcing less new materials.
Resource scarsity is a growing problem. Let’s gain a grip over the materials we use.
Avoiding emissions follows from applying circular practices. We start there.
Building relations and improving your proposition goes hand in hand with circularity.
Compliance is not our main focus, but should go without saying.
Since we started back in 2015, we have always worked with one simple truth in mind: the circular economy starts with our use of materials. We need to avoid using materials where possible, design our products to last longer and always for next use solutions. And above all: the circular economy only works if the numbers add up!
We are best known for our Digital Product Passport (DPP) platform – C_passport®. But if there’s one thing we have learned in decades of working in the circular economy, it’s this: tech tools like the DPP only work if you understand the bigger picture. Our knowledge and experiences are integrated in our platform and we are at your disposal to provide guidance. That’s what sets us apart: a track record in the circular economy that allows you to not only integrate DPPs in your day-to-day operations, but use it to transform your business model to a more circular proposition.
We help you shape circular strategies, concepts, and products by combining your expertise with our circular perspective to map a tailored roadmap for impactful action.
We turn circular plans into action by leveraging our network to organise supply cycles that ensure material recovery and quality preservation.
C_passport® ties everything together by turning material data and impact insights into strategic tools that strengthen your circular business model and engage your customers and partners.
The basic principles of circularity we apply hold true for every type of product. That is why our platform is set up for any product. We currently support over 50 companies in various industries, with tens of thousands of C_passports® in use. All contributing to a resource-efficient, circular economy.
“Materials are crucial to support almost everything we do, so we should gain a grip over how we use them. It is our job to help you support that strategy with data, help you make the right decisions, and have customers and supply chain partners join your mission.”
Jasper Martin – Consultant Circularity
We need to push many buttons to arrive at a circular economy. That holds true for individual companies as well. That is why we always tailor our approach to specific cases. We can do so because we have extensive experience in various industries and with every step of the supply cycle. Together with our customers, we find the right buttons to push – whether it’s product design, reverse logistics, refurbishment or recycling solutions, or digitisation. In most cases, it’s the combination of activities that makes the difference. And we are there to serve as a guide through every step of the process. Allowing you to make the right choices.
“Our applications are designed and built to support numerous sustainability practices in one place. We follow EU guidelines provided for DPP solution providers and combining them with our goal: securing materials in circular loops.”
Rens van den Boorn – Product Manager
