We Align Capitalism With Positive Social and Environmental Impact

Impact

We strive to reduce, and eventually eliminate, the need for natural resource extraction and waste related to the manufacturing and use of products.

Our investments in the circular economy align capitalism with positive social and environmental impact by reducing waste and greenhouse gas emissions via materials innovation, advanced recycling technologies, supply chain optimization, and keeping materials in play. We measure our impact according to four key pillars that underpin the acceleration toward a circular economy.

2,300,000 tons diverted from landfill

Landfills are the 3rd largest source of methane emissions in the world and represent the end-of-life for too many valuable materials.

5,300,000 tons of greenhouse gases avoided

Twenty percent of greenhouse gas emissions come from the linear industrial production of consumer goods, contributing to climate change.

$16M economic benefit to municipalities and local communities

Cities avoid landfill tipping fees and recyclables are kept in local manufacturing supply chains, creating jobs and spurring innovation and growth in local economies.

$272M co-investment attracted to catalyze circular supply chains

The circular economy requires a shift in the traditional flow of capital and a collaborative, industry-wide effort to bring sufficient capital in order to enable the new economy.
