The transition to a circular economy is expected to change the role of logistics signifcantly. The Topsector Logistics (Dutch: “Topsector Logistiek” i) commissioned Copper8 to research this topic with key frontrunners active in the capital-intensive manufacturing industry. More specifcally, this whitepaper is about the logistical challenges related to supplying, maintaining and returning high-value, capitalintensive products that tend to maintain their value over multiple years. The insights from this research show the issues encountered by organisations at different stages in their transition to a circular capital-intensive manufacturing industry. This whitepaper can be a starting point for businesses providing or using capital-intensive products, organisations supplying the logistics for these products and organisations trying to get a better grip on the logistical issues of a transition to a circular economy. Topsector Logistics will use this research as a starting point for follow-up research.
