The Circularity in Business Award recognizes the commitment of a business in the St. Louis region that has made outstanding efforts to reduce waste and promote a circular economy. Circularity takes "reduce, reuse, and recycle" to a whole new level by using innovative practices to replace "linear" systems that have become the status quo. Nominees may be involved in areas such as renewable energy, energy efficiency, composting, reuse, or promoting a sharing economy, among others.

Do practices used by this business have a notable impact on the amount of waste in the St. Louis region, or can they be expanded upon or replicated to achieve a reduction in waste?

How did the nominee partner with other people/organizations? How do the efforts impact the regional circular economy?
