The Circular Economy calls for all materials in manufacturing to be reused, recycled or biodegradable. COVID-19 has raised new questions about plastics use and sustainability of, for example, using single-use surgical gowns, masks and gloves. Consider:

  • investing in new protective materials that are reusable or biodegradable and that replace harmful plastics
  • the environmental friendliness of cleaning products that will end up in waterways and oceans
  • the potential health implications of contamination
