The strive for a efficiency improvement of logistics processes also affects the wood biomass industry. A numerous areas within the reverse supply chains of wood biomass show potential for optimization in the context of the circular economy development. Concerning the reverse supply chain of wood biomass, it is important to precisely identify the essential parameters that determine the overall efficiency of supply chain. The aim of this study is to identify the control parameters that determine the efficiency of processes related to the processing of wood biomass, as well as the problems and solutions that occur within the reverse supply chains of wood biomass. An attempt was made to understand the specifics of the management process through the use of a qualitative approach – focus group interview (FGI). The FGI was conducted among both operational and process managers. The results obtained have been classified according to specific groups of codes and have been analysed in depth. The results obtained show that the wood biomass industry revels potential for logistics processes optimalization throughout a proper management and key process parameters identification. The application of elements of the Circular Economy (CE) in the handling processes shows a great potential for process optimization. This is consistent with the wood-biomass industry’s natural drive to solve problems, minimize waste and have a high degree of adaptation within the dynamic and changing environment of reverse supply chains. Conclusions and recommendations formulated can be incorporated into existing reverse supply chains of wood biomass.
