Re-universe

Platform explicitly designed to enable reuse and digital deposit-return schemes (Digital DRS), directly supporting reuse and take-back circular strategies. Source: Re-universe, 2024

Re-universe operates pilots and live client implementations (Blenheim, Eden, Wimbledon), directly hosting or coordinating returns and refund flows rather than only providing white-label tools. Source: Re-universe, 2024

Categorised as Circular Logistics - specifically a take-back and returns platform (digital DRS, deposit/holding flows, return points). Source: Re-universe, 2024

Primary focus is on Reuse (R3) via deposit/holding-charge systems. Secondary impacts include Rethink (R1) by shifting delivery models to reuse, and Reduce (R2) through reducing single-use items. Evidence from platform description and pilots. Source: Re-universe, 2024

Delivers take-back and reuse value by enabling deposits/holding-charges and return verification for reusable containers (Digital DRS pilots). Source: Re-universe, 2024

Platform is focused on reuse of single-use drink containers at retailers, visitor attractions and events (projects: Blenheim Palace, Eden Project, Wimbledon) and runs Digital DRS pilots - overlaps retail and recycling/waste streams. Source: Re-universe, 2024

Live projects and pilots in Great Britain (Blenheim, Eden, Wimbledon) and Ireland/Northern Ireland (Dublin, Whitehead) indicate operation across multiple countries but not global presence. Source: Re-universe, 2024

Website references RFID "track and trace" and card 'tap' payment integration and return points; this suggests the solution uses or integrates hardware (readers/terminals). It is unclear whether re-universe supplies all hardware or integrates third-party devices. See CHECK_RECORD for uncertainty. Source: Re-universe, 2024
