Circular Business Hub Luxembourg

Luxembourg is a testbed for circular business solutions

Luxembourg has established itself as a driving force in the circular economy thanks to numerous initiatives aimed at attracting international investment and partnerships. Its connectivity and its ICT and financial sectors make it an ideal breeding ground for emerging circular models.

By supporting new activities, promoting the circular concept abroad and collaborating internationally, the country aims to become a centre of excellence.

Supporting business

The Ministries of the Economy and Finance are working to create an environment conducive to circular businesses through various state aid programmes.

Setting standards

The Product Circularity Data Sheet (PCDS) , developed since 2019 with 50 European companies, has just been published as the ISO59040 standard. Guidelines have also been developed for more circular business areas.

Boosting knowledge

Luxembourg organises international events to highlight its actions, such as the 2015 conference on circular finance or the 2017 ‘Circular Economy Hot Spot’. The municipality of Wiltz celebrated its tenth anniversary as a national circular economy hot spot in 2025.

Cross-border collaboration

Following the success of the INTERREG Greater Green project (2016), Luxembourg is taking part in ‘Greater Green +’, an INTERREG initiative to support environmental SMEs in the Greater Region. The aim is to make the Greater Region a leader in the ecological transition towards a circular economy and sustainable development, focusing on five themes: energy, sustainable construction and renovation, recycling technologies, water and the environment, and the bioeconomy.
