- Smart design upcycling of post-production display panels into new creative materials to support the sustainable development of a circular economy in the furniture industry. The economy is currently transforming from a linear economy to a circular economy. This is increasingly supported by policy, legislation, industry, and academia. A circular economy means more efficient management of renewable natural resources, which has implications for businesses’ bioeconomies, as expressed in the sustainable development goals of the United Nations’ 2023 Agenda. Our study contributes to solving a research gap by seeking to answer several questions: How can post-production residues be used to improve a company’s bioeconomy? Can they bring profit to a company while saving natural wood? Is upcycling using the smart design of post-production a helpful solution for material and cost savings in the bioeconomy? The outcome of our study is twofold. From a creative input perspective, we show the creative possibilities of upcycling production residues. For business models, we refine the conceptualisation of a sustainable SME circular bioeconomy through the profit gained from such a product solution. Based on our research, we present conclusions and suggestions for small and medium-sized enterprises, scientists, designers, and technologists to help the furniture industry transition from a linear economy to a sustainable circular economy. This promotes company profitability and growth and helps to save natural wood.
