Cluster Analysis of Circular Economy and Industrial Symbiosis Practices and Their Impact on Sustainability Performance in the Plastics Industry
This study examines how plastics manufacturing firms can be classified according to their level of implementation of circular economy ( CE ) and industrial symbiosis (IS) practices and how such adoption influences sustainability performance. Using data from plastics manufacturing firms, we integrate cluster analysis with partial least squares structural equation modeling to capture firm‐level heterogeneity and examine practice–performance relatio…
The circular economy and the sustainable development goals
The textile industry, a globally significant sector, is increasingly adopting sustainable alternatives through corporate social responsibility (CSR), environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria, circular economy (CE) principles, and implementation of the sustainable development goals (SDGs). A total of 60 companies from the textile sector were analysed using a fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis to assess the achievement of SDGs 6,…
Rethinking Waste
Despite growing awareness of the importance of waste prevention in circular economy transitions, substantial volumes of reusable items continue to be discarded. This exploratory case study investigates consumer behavior at a Swedish recycling center, focusing on decisions made at the point of disposal. Guided by Social Practice Theory (SPT), the study examines how routines, knowledge, infrastructure, and cultural meanings shape behavior when indi…
Sustainable shopping in the Basque Country
The transition to sustainable food consumption is essential for mitigating the environmental impacts of the food industry. This study examines the factors influencing sustainable purchasing behaviour in the Basque Country, focusing on the pre-purchase decision-making phase in supermarkets. This research, rooted in Social Practice Theory (SPT), examines how factors such as social norms, awareness, knowledge, availability, and price sensitivity inf…
Toward Sustainable Development Through Industrial Symbiosis
The plastics sector faces serious sustainability challenges, and recent literature emphasizes the need for collaborative networks to support its transition to a circular economy (CE). This study investigates how industrial symbiosis (IS) can support the transition of the plastic supply chain in the Basque Country toward a CE by identifying key barriers and drivers and proposing a conceptual framework that integrates sustainability dimensions. Ado…
Towards the Implementation of the Smart Circular Economy for Sustainable Development
The hospitality sector is recognized for its high impact on sustainable development due to its intensive use of resources and significant waste generation. Although factors influencing the implementation of the smart circular economy (SCE) for sustainability have been studied, empirical evidence remains limited and diffuse, especially in hospitality. To address this gap, we investigate the main barriers and drivers for SCE implementation in the h…
Towards a consensus on the circular economy
The growing importance of the concept of the circular economy as a way to attain sustainable development has encouraged scholars to propose different ways to understand it. Given the large number of studies done on the circular economy, their differing approaches and their multiple applications, this paper attempts to propose a consensus view of the basic notions of the circular economy framework and highlight its relationship with eco-innovation…
