The Circul'R family
We are a close-knit and dynamic team that strives to place its expertise at the service of the transition of companies and territories towards a circular economy.
How did this whole thing start?
Jules Coignard and Raphaël Masvigner met in Mexico in 2013 while working for Airbus. Both passionate about the environment, they left their jobs a year later to carry out the first world tour of the circular economy. The idea is to prove that we have today all the solutions to develop in a sustainable way. After a 17-month trip to 22 countries where they met 150 circular economy startups, they returned to France to launch the social enterprise Circul'R in 2017. It aims in particular to build the first global network of circular economy startups to accelerate the transition from a linear economy (take-consume-throw) to a circular economy, respectful of people and the planet.
In 2022, the Circul'R family has grown: the team now counts more than 30 people who accompany companies and territories in their transformation every day. This mission is carried out with the support of the network of more than 1000 solution providers and experts that make up the Circul'R ecosystem!
Why we believe in the circular economy?
The circular economy is nothing but common sense. It invites us to use natural resources in an intelligent way to stop producing waste. Nature embodies the perfect circular model: nothing is lost, everything is transformed. Each individual creates added value for the natural ecosystem and the waste of some, makes the resources of others.
Through the circular economy, significant improvements can be achieved quickly by companies while creating a positive social, environmental and economic impact. It's a win-win operation. That's why we firmly believe that this is the economic model we need to build a sustainable economy that respects people and the planet.
