MATChE is a programme carried out by Technical University of Denmark to help Danish industry increase its competitiveness, growth and job creation by demonstrating how to make an effective transition towards a circular economy (CE), based on current readiness assessment and strategic driver identification.

Enabling this transition is expected to enhance the Danish economy and society in the long term, boosting its value and increasing resource productivity. The project’s primary audience are Danish manufacturers, including their upstream and downstream value chains, across numerous sectors. Industrial companies include significant players in the Danish economy, embracing large manufacturing companies and SMEs. Taking a cross-sectorial approach boosts knowledge and exchange among a range of actors, and helps to stimulate innovation and business.
