These systems extend the lifecycle of plastic products by allowing them to be used multiple times, reducing the demand for new plastic products.
Resale systems involve selling previously used plastic products, extending their lifespan, and reducing the need for new items. This approach promotes a circular economy, where products are continually cycled through the market.
Reuse, resale, and refill systems offer viable solutions to the plastic waste crisis. Initiatives like CupClub, Muuse, RePack, Algramo, and Thrilling demonstrate the potential of these business models to reduce waste and cut carbon emissions. However, consumers, businesses, and governments must collaborate to promote these systems.
