Abstract
Although circular supply chains are widely perceived as a huge leap towards a more environmentally friendly economy, supply chain literature lacks environmental supplier selection criteria (E-SSC) for circular supply chains. Taking into account the various characteristics of circular supply chains such as recycling versus remanufacturing and the related transport and quality of returned products, we identify E-SSC for circular supply chains. We demonstrate the need and applicability of the proposed E-SSC by conducting a life cycle assessment (LCA) in the cement industry. Moreover, in doing so, we explore the underlying mechanisms explaining the environmental performance of circular supply chains.
