King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands has assured Bangladesh it will support the South Asian country in adapting to circular economy in the changed development scene. The two deltaic countries plan to enhance cooperation in various sectors such as climate change, women's development, sustainable manufacturing, technology, economy, and more. According to the circular economy work plan, people will be provided with high quality and safe products at economical prices. The products will be more sustainable than past products and can be remanufactured too. The focus will be on improved living, creative employment, and ensuring higher knowledge and skills. Both of the two countries could benefit equally from such cooperation.

European Union (EU) countries are first implementing circular economy themselves. Re-manufacturing is important to circular economy particularly, for the sake of maintaining environmental balance. By means of circular economy, the aim of the EU is to reduce carbon emissions to a specific level by 2030 and cut expenditure by at least €60,000 billion, as well as to ensure a minimum 80,000 jobs.

According to the EU website, the bloc has been working in accordance to a work plan drawn up in 2015.

It will be compulsory to make it possible to remanufacture one-fourth of a product of countries exporting to the EU.
