The transition to circular and environmentally sustainable supply chains is gradually taking hold for companies. In the case of France, it is strongly encouraged by public authorities which attach great importance to environmental issues. It is in this context that a research project has been initiated on the important issue of reducing the environmental impact of packaging in the automotive industry. This project is closely linked to the orientations of public authorities and existing and future regulations, including the AGEC law, as well as the company’s strategic and environmental commitment. More concretely, this research project is at the dawn of a new technological revolution combining circular logistics and sustainable packaging. It aims to design a circular logistics system specific to B2B exchanges in the field of automotive construction. This concerns both the exploration of technologies to design sustainable packaging and cushioning elements, as well as the structural and organizational implementation of a circular logistics system to implement them. The presentation of this project is based on the highlights of the literature review, the presentation of the research program and the economic value of research work.
