By partnering with SLICE, industry can tap into our unique expertise and resources to advance the development and adaptation of technologies toward sustainable resource optimization within the circular economy.  The circular economy prioritizes the reuse, recycling and upcycling of materials and resources to minimize waste and promote sustainability through innovation and wise practices. SLICE creates solutions and provides learning and training opportunities that have environmental, economic, financial and social benefits.
