Circulix provides a business-to-business, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) intelligence and impact platform designed to transition companies to a circular economy. The company's core service involves automatically collecting and analyzing product data across the entire value chain, from design to end-of-life. Using its proprietary circularity framework, the platform rates the circularity of products at a component level and identifies "hotspots" where improvements can be made. It then provides tailored recommendations and clear implementation strategies to help clients innovate their products and processes for greater sustainability.
The company was co-founded by Mateusz Wielopolski, who has a background as a chemist and in sports management, with experience in polymers, composite materials, and technical textiles. This expertise in materials science informs the platform's ability to assess and guide product development across various industries. Circulix's business model is centered on its data platform, which also functions as a solutions network, connecting businesses with partners to implement circular strategies. The company generates revenue through this platform and plans to offer additional services, such as providing benchmark data and a learning platform for enterprise clients and their customers.
Initially, Circulix is targeting the fashion and apparel industry, a sector with high carbon emissions and increasing regulatory pressure under initiatives like the EU Green Deal. The company aims to validate its model in this sector before expanding into other industries such as electronics, construction, and chemicals. Circulix's system is designed to help businesses meet the growing consumer demand for sustainable products and comply with evolving environmental regulations.
