iPoint-systems provides software to collect, manage and analyse product, material and compliance data across product lifecycles. Its tools (LCA, digital product passports, traceability) support companies to design for circularity, increase material circularity and enable reuse and recycling.
Core
Site explicitly promotes 'Circular Economy' solutions, digital product passports, LCA and lifecycle management as core offerings supporting circular strategies.
SupportEnabler
iPoint provides software and services (SaaS, integration, analytics) that enable other organisations to implement circular business models rather than directly operating take-back or resale services.
