Often, individual (uncoordinated) process components, so-called bottlenecks, prevent entire process chains from becoming circular. Value Stream Mapping (VSM) consists of the analysis and visualization of value chains or internal company processes. This helps to identify and eliminate bottlenecks. The idea is to deliver value from the customer’s perspective and to continuously improve the process chain by collecting and evaluating the value chain and information flow. VSM aims to help with the adoption of circularity principles alongside the value stream.

A detailed description on how to use the VSM tool is descripted in the guideline on page 23 with the example of a PET manufacturing process. The PET manufacturing process includes pre-form injection, bottle blowing, labeling, quality control, granulation andpackaging. The analysed parameters were energy, water consumption, noise level, reject rate, transport distance, and scrape rate. Five improvement potenials were identified which resulted in three significant improvements in the key performance indicators scrape rate and idle time.
Often, individual (uncoordinated) process components, so-called bottlenecks, prevent entire process chains from being implemented effectively regarding CE. These problem areas can be identified through a holistic CE analysis, which is where this guideline is intended to help. For companies looking for guidance to better understand their own (micro) or supply chains (macro) process chains regarding CE, the following guide provides orientation.
