The Circulator is a web-based tool developed in a framework of the project of the same name (funded by EIT Raw Materials) that helps companies to navigate potential circular strategies and learn from inspiring cases.

The tool provides an overview of the most relevant business models for the raw materials industry in the context of the circular economy, and helps create a circular business model suited to a specific company or start-up. The user can mix strategies from the three main categories (sustainable materials management strategies, business strategies, value network strategies) and get inspired by existing companies using this mix.

Finally, the user can also freely browse through the case database, making use of individual strategies, country, sector or level of maturity as filters.
