90% of materials are currently wasted*. This is despite many best efforts to recycle and re-use goods. This is not sustainable in a world where resources are becoming scarcer. 

 

Lyfe2 supports company goals of becoming circular, reducing waste and actually profiting from sustainability—a win-win scenario for business, people and the planet. 

​

A product - some office or lab equipment, marketing or warehousing materials, tools or machinery is used - it's first life.

​

But then, for whatever reason, it’s no longer required. It’s in good condition so why not re-use it?

​​

HOW?

The Lyfe2 platform enables full visibility of what is available in a business -

• OFFER Upload photographs, a description, location and technical data. Publise it's availability, then move and re-use.

• REQUIRED Before buying an item, search the catalogue. Request the item and re-use.

​

OR​

If no second life is found, items can be sold to either an internal or external (gated) audience. 

​

REPORTING​

Track each item -

• the CO2 saved (production plus logistics to use point)

• the financial savings -

  • Cost avoidance not re-purchasing

  • Cost avoidance on warehousing

  • Cost saving on destruction

This data gives actionable insights and numerically confirms company sustainability credentials.

​

This tool would suit companies that are international, franchised, individual business units within a larger group, working in silos, a sub-contracting group, an umbrella corporate structure or government agency - where information sharing is sub-optimal.
