Reuse of prefabricated concrete elements, logistics and business model

The project aims to develop a circular management of prefabricated concrete elements by creating a digital infrastructure for collecting data on reused elements from demolition projects. This includes linking demolition permit registers with business systems via digital product passports with IFC standards. 

The project will also implement reuse inventory and quality assurance at retailers, and develop and validate various circular business models. Logistics solutions for transport, warehousing and resale will be validated, and reuse will be included in EPDs to create added value.

The project addresses challenges such as quality assurance, logistics and business models, and aims to establish circular flows in the construction industry. By focusing on the reuse of concrete elements, the project aims to reduce climate impact and create an integrated ecosystem for the built environment. The results will be disseminated through seminars, digital channels and publications, and the project is expected to contribute to increased access to quality-assured recycled concrete elements, reduced climate impact and changed business models.
