A circular economy is a sustainable framework focused on the continuous use of materials in a regenerative loop. Through analysis of product resource flows, this project assisted Miljøpunkt Amager in developing circular economy practices applicable to small food companies in Amager. The results show that best practices are unique for each business, suggesting the necessity to standardize the process of obtaining these best practices rather than generalizing them across the entire food industry.
