How to scale circular tech today?

1. The challenge: a promising market facing structural barriers

The circular tech market is growing fast, driven by sustainability goals, regulatory changes, and increasing demand for refurbished devices. Yet, despite its strong potential, the industry still struggles to scale efficiently. Here are the three main challenges the market is facing:

• Fragmented trade-in channels

Device collection often relies on multiple, disconnected programs across online, in-store, and B2B environments, making it difficult for companies to standardize processes, ensure consistent customer experiences, and maximize recovered value. Offering a seamless trade-in experience across channels remains a major challenge.

• Inconsistent access to reliable refurbished devices

Quality levels vary from one supplier to another, traceability is often limited, and pricing is inconsistent. For professionals, purchasing refurbished devices can feel risky, with uncertainty around grading, certification, and long-term value. This unpredictability slows down procurement decisions and limits the ability to scale refurbished device distribution.

• Eroded value along the way

Too many intermediaries, opaque pricing mechanisms, and limited access to market data create black boxes where margins disappear. Without clear visibility on device flows, performance, and real-time market value, circular tech operations remain complex, inefficient, and harder to optimize.

2. The solution: a smart circular solution for tech professionals

To overcome the current barriers in the circular tech space, professionals need more than just tools: they need a connected, intelligent ecosystem. This is where Dipli stands out.
