What is the circular economy and why does it matter?
A short introduction to circular business models and why independent verification of circularity claims is becoming essential.
The product
What is Speeki Circularity Lens™?
Speeki Circularity Lens™ is a dedicated circular economy verification product operating across two distinct but connected arms. Which one you need depends on what you are trying to verify.
Both arms are delivered through Speeki Engage®, our ESG and sustainability assurance platform, and conducted by Speeki’s qualified, independent verification professionals under rigorous quality management standards.
How Speeki Circularity Lens™ works · Explainer video
Regulation
The regulatory landscape is driving demand for circularity
CSRD – ESRS E5
EU CSRD reporters are required to disclose on resource use and circular economy actions under ESRS E5. Organisation circularity verification under ISO 59020 provides the independently verified performance data to support compliant, substantiated disclosure.
EU Digital Product Passport
Product-level circularity data under the DPP framework must be independently verified. Product circularity verification under ISO 59040 is structured for DPP compliance across all product categories coming into scope from 2026 onwards.
EU Taxonomy Regulation
Circular economy is one of the six environmental objectives against which economic activities are assessed for taxonomy alignment. Verified ISO 59020 data supports taxonomy alignment disclosures and do-no-significant-harm assessments across circular economy criteria.
Global Circularity Protocol
The Global Circularity Protocol, launched at COP30, provides an emerging global framework for circular economy measurement and reporting. Circularity Lens organisation verification supports GCP-aligned disclosures with independently verified underlying performance data.
Two verifications
Speeki Circularity Lens™ has two segments. Learn about each in our explainer videos.
ISO 59020
Organisational circularity performance
Independent verification of circularity metrics, data sources and boundaries at organisation level.
ISO 59040
Product circularity performance
Independent verification of product-level circularity data, structured for the EU Digital Product Passport.
