This study explores the management and application of circular economy principles to the production of noise barriers in order to reduce the environmental impacts and increase resource use efficiency. Using a comprehensive methodological framework that includes a literature review and a case study analysis within a noise barrier manufacturing company, the study uses the Circular Canvas tool to map and prioritise circular opportunities in the production process. The findings reveal significant potential for improving the sustainability of noise barrier production through the adoption of circular economy practices, such as sustainable material use, resource optimisation and eco-design principles. Applying these practices not only underlines the environmental benefits, but also adds value by providing a pathway to more sustainable process management.

Niniejsze badanie bada zarządzanie i zastosowanie zasad gospodarki o obiegu zamkniętym do produkcji ekranów dźwiękoszczelnych w celu zmniejszenia wpływu na środowisko i zwiększenia efektywności wykorzystania zasobów. Wykorzystując kompleksową metodologiczną strukturę, która obejmuje przegląd literatury oraz analizę studiów przypadków w firmie produkującej ekrany dźwiękoszczelne badanie wykorzystuje narzędzie Circular Canvas do zmapowania i priorytetyzacji okazji związanych z gospodarką o obiegu zamkniętym w procesie produkcji. Wyniki ujawniają znaczący potencjał poprawy zrównoważonego rozwoju produkcji rekranów dźwiękoszczelnych poprzez przyjęcie praktyk gospodarki o obiegu zamkniętym, takich jak zrównoważone wykorzystanie materiałów, optymalizacja zasobów i zasady ekoprojektowania. Zastosowanie tych praktyk nie tylko podkreśla korzyści środowiskowe, ale także dodaje wartość, zapewniając ścieżkę do bardziej zrównoważonego zarządzania procesami.
