Scaling circular economy solutions
Flex companies
A heightened focus on sustainable manufacturing, supply chain, and post-sale services are driving companies around the world to find innovative solutions to extend their product lifecycles.
Our reverse logistics and circular economy services emphasize product longevity and waste reduction, enabling customers to further embrace sustainable practices, maximize value recovery, and lengthen the lifespans of their products — at scale. Along with our design, supply chain, manufacturing, and post production services, we design and implement tailored strategies to prolong the product lifecycle while meeting regulatory requirements.
Through a broad range of integrated circular services — encompassing CO2 analytics, returns and screening, repair, refurbishment, asset recovery, parts harvesting, and recycling — we are uniquely positioned to help brands minimize their products’ environmental impact and advance a closed-loop, regenerative future.
We provide integrated reverse logistics and circular economy services that are supported by our intelligent reporting and measurement tools, knowledge of compliance regulations, and a global and regional presence. With our help, customers can confidently meet their sustainability and business goals and respond to ever increasing regulations that require the traceable use and disposal of materials.
Highlighting our leadership, innovation, and commitment to sustainable business practices, Flex was honored with a Sustainable Environmental Achievement and Leadership (SEAL) Award in the Sustainable Service category for our circular economy solutions and intelligent CO2 analytics.
Data is a powerful tool in crafting and implementing an effective circular economy solutions strategy. Our suite of leading financial and environmental modeling tools and our award-winning Flex ECO2™ help you quantify how our circular interventions can reduce emissions and drive resource productivity.
From an initial assessment of carbon emissions to data driven support of repair, refurbishment, and recovery decisions, our capabilities help you identify the optimal path forward and craft the right strategy for your service and sustainability needs.
A trusted reverse logistics, returns, and screening process is critical to recovering value from returned products across enterprise, retail, and consumer channels.
We provide a range of capabilities to enhance the customer experience and returns visibility while maximizing value recovery. Our services include customer returns process management, returns logistics to the receipt, and screenings of products. Our expertise in asset recovery supports take-back programs with zero-landfill initiatives, full end-to-end traceability, and legal compliance.
Repair and refurbishment have become important customer service and sustainability pillars for many brands. These capabilities allow companies to maintain products and prolong their lifecycle.
With configurable and scalable operations globally, we provide high quality technical repair and refurbishment services that are tailored to meet specific lead time, service, and cost objectives. Our repair and refurbishment services are continually refined based on product and service process insights.
Many companies recognize the intrinsic value remaining within products at end of life.
Our intelligent reporting capabilities and second life value calculators enable value recovery and carbon footprint reduction outcomes. Extracting valuable metals and components and enabling product reuse provides new revenue streams. Additionally, these practices contribute to a zero-landfill strategy for products. We provide parts harvesting services and spare parts logistics across our sites and are connected to a global network of recovery partners.
Sustainability is at the heart of what we do — from the materials we source to the manufacturing processes that transform them into your final products.
Why? Because our sustainable business practices help protect our communities, our customers, and our business for the future. Which means we can keep leading the way together for a long time to come.
Our systems provide visibility and audit trails into product status. This discernment supports quality and customer processes, while also providing the analytical basis for continuous process and service improvement insights.
