H&M :The Lower Use of Raw Materials Allows to Create More Value

From a sustainable perspective the transition from a linear to a circular economy is necessary. A circular economy requires innovation of material and product reuse, as well as related business models. By using materials more effectively, economic growth will eventually be detached from the use of natural resources and ecosystems. In such an economy, the lower use of raw materials allows to create more value.
