A Circular Economy for More Sustainable Product Development – Project “ZirkuPro”

Manufacturing mechatronic products is associated with high energy demand, critical raw materials, and complex manufacturing conditions. One way to solve this problem is through a circular economy, which makes it possible to conserve resources and ensure sustainable development.
