What's Next for Circularity

Realizing the circular economy for building materials remains challenging for most materials, but widespread advocacy and engagement by every actor in the materials ecosystem can unlock rapid change. This session will illustrate why the time is right for bold actions to catalyze circularity at scale. Inspiring panelists will share how they are leveraging their position as owners, designers, contractors, policy makers, manufacturers, remanufacturers, and advocates to advance change in real-time. Experts will address the business and social value case for circular construction, manufacturer efforts to create circular materials and buyback programs, and how regional actions are coalescing into shared knowledge and application.
