Few sectors can claim an impact as positive as the social and circular economy. Every year, RREUSE’s social and circular enterprise members deliver significant social, economic and environmental benefits by creating inclusive employment opportunities in reuse, repair and recycling.
Since 2017, RREUSE has compiled data from across its network to demonstrate the collective impact of its members in 22 countries. In 2025, RREUSE members collected 1,340,000 tonnes of waste, involved 120,000 people in their reuse, repair and recycling activities, and generated a combined turnover of €1.334 billion.
Our latest member impact infographic reveals the full scale of their contribution, including the tonnes collected by material stream, the CO₂ emissions avoided and the number of jobs created.
