CIRCULAR ECONOMY DESIGN GUIDE
Launched on 30th January 2024, this guide aims to provide a comprehensive overview and understanding of how to design for a Circular Economy.
This document represents a culmination of hard work and contributions by multiple skilled individuals from across the industry, over the past 3 years.
Following the successful completion of the 'Circular Series' lunchtime sessions in 2021, a report was produced to collate all the valuable information presented during these events. More recently, and to assist with concluding the guide, the 'Closing the Loop' workshop in November 2023 called for input to help identify key strategic actions for a building’s end of life.
