The Circular Transitions Indicators (CTI) framework was developed by WBCSD and 30 of its members. CTI helps companies measure and improve their sustainability performance by providing a simple and sector-agnostic way to measure circularity and giving insights into how to reduce primary resource use and waste generation.
Circular IQ’s CTI Tool is the WBCSD endorsed software tool for effectively measuring CTI and leveraging these insights.

The Circular Economy Action Plan (CEAP) is a cornerstone of the European Union’s sustainability initiatives, aiming to transition from a linear to a circular economy. While the plan outlines ambitious goals, the path to achieving them can be complex. That’s where CTI Tool comes in. This article will explore how CTI Tool is your go-to solution for navigating the intricacies of the CEAP and other similar action plans.

Why the Circular Economy Action Plan Matters

The CEAP, part of the European Green Deal, aims to redefine growth by focusing on positive societal benefits and minimizing the consumption of finite resources. It outlines 54 actions, legislative proposals, and a dedicated funding mechanism to facilitate the transition. The plan is not just a policy framework; it’s a call to action for businesses to adopt sustainable practices.Proper software tooling to collect-, process-, and organize-, material composition-data is a key success factor for the business community.

The Challenges of Implementing the CEAP

Transitioning to a circular economy is no small thing. It requires a multifaceted approach, from design and manufacturing to sourcing and end-of-life management. Companies must also align their circular economy strategies with other sustainability goals and reporting requirements, such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), as well as collect- and be able to disclose the required data.
