The International Organisation of Standards has launched a series of standards to support the transition to a circular economy. The ISO 59000 family of 5 standards have been designed to create a common understanding of definitions, principles, action points and assessments for companies to follow, and support their work to incorporate circular strategies into their business practices.
ISO 59004 - 6 principles and guidance for implementation
ISO 59010 - Transition of business models and value networks
ISO 59020 - Measuring and assessing circularity performance
ISO 59040 - Product data circularity data sheet
ISO 59014 - Sustainability and traceability of secondary materials recovery – Principles, requirements and guidance
