Circular Economy Audit
CE audit – find out how much you can gain
A GOZ audit is a comprehensive assessment of a company’s compliance with circular economy principles, analysing resource efficiency, waste reduction and recycling potential.
The GOZ audit is a service aimed at large, medium and small manufacturing and service companies. The audit results provide entrepreneurs with information on which processes can be optimised, how to reduce raw material and energy consumption, how to implement solutions conducive to the circular economy, and, as a result, facilitate sustainable and effective company management. All this is done so that recovered raw materials, processed products and waste become resources that are reintroduced into circulation. This reduces the demand for new raw materials and energy, lowers greenhouse gas emissions and minimises operating costs.
Na czym polega audyt GOZ?
Specialists in environmental protection, water management, materials technology, recycling, and experts in implementing circular economy principles will analyse the company’s operational processes. They will then examine the possibilities for optimising them in terms of reducing energy and raw material consumption, minimising waste generation, and returning waste to the cycle. The knowledge and many years of experience of the Circular Economy Centre team enable them to perform a circular economy audit in a company and prepare recommendations for the implementation of circular economy solutions that benefit the company, society and the environment.
We offer solutions tailored to the specific needs of individual companies, which will help close the cycle within a single company and its suppliers. We have an extensive network of contacts, thanks to which we can recommend partners for cooperation. Among other things, this will allow for the establishment of an ‘industrial symbiosis’, i.e. a form of cooperation in which waste from one company can become a raw material for another.
The audit results in a detailed report (within 5 weeks) with actionable recommendations supporting sustainability, cost reduction and long-term competitiveness.
