Linear supply chains have SAP and Oracle.
Circular ones have nothing ContainerGrid.
Your products contain materials you'll need again. ContainerGrid designs, launches, and operates the take-back programs that get them back — on production software already running 1M+ orders across 3,800+ connected drop-off points.
Less dependence on imports and single suppliers.
Supply keeps flowing when markets or borders don't.
Sourcing volatility and write-offs hit the bottom line — this is a procurement and profit conversation.
From asset owner to offtaker — every handoff documented.
One platform. Two building blocks.
One runs your services. One secures your materials.
Orchestration Engine
Coordinate every pickup, handoff, and processor under your rules. Then turn take-back, lifetime extension, and end-of-life offerings into a service line you run at scale — with a partner network you don't have to build.
Virtual Material Account (VMA)
A live ledger of every material you own — what it is, its condition, and where it is. You decide who processes it, which producer it's allocated to, and secure access to critical raw materials for your own production — up to setting the terms of trade.
Your service organization runs on the engine. Your procurement runs on the account.
Across both: Digital Product Passport integration (upstream composition data flows into end-of-life workflows) and Carbon Intelligence (Scope 3 actuals, PCF/CCF, CBAM-ready).

Decision-gated. Never all-or-nothing.
Every phase ends with evidence and an explicit go/no-go. You buy certainty in increments — not a transformation program.
Scoping Session
Map your asset classes, material streams, and recovery options with our team.
AI-Scoped Program Design
A packaged, costed program concept for your assets — a program is a governed, repeating recovery workflow for one asset class.
Proof-of-Value Pilot
Governed pilot on live orders with your existing contractors, measured against agreed criteria.
Take-Back-as-a-Service
Roll out per business unit, asset type, and material stream — regionally, then globally.
Measured in production.
Observed in production programs. 100% audit-grade chain of custody on every order.
Existing software categories stop at your factory gate.

Where we run programs
Energy · Rail · Telco
Fixed network assets: energy, rail, telco.
Automotive Take-Back Programs
Vehicle-origin: EV batteries, components, dealer & dismantler networks.
Deconstruction & Urban Mining
The built environment: deconstruction, mineral material streams, building products.
Buildings are material banks. We match what demolition releases with what the next site needs — routed to the highest-value reuse, documented end to end.
IT & Equipment
Powered devices & equipment — office fleets to network gear.
Industrial Packaging Loops
Packaging & reusable carriers — pallets, crates, IBCs — across any industry.
CCU & Nature-Based Streams
Industrial process outputs: CCU (carbon capture & utilization), mineral & nature-based streams.
Different asset base?
Most programs start exactly there — machinery, industrial equipment, and asset classes we haven't published yet.
