The construction sector has a vast environmental footprint using about 1/3 of all resources, generating about 1/3 of all waste and accounting for about 1/3 of GHG emissions. Most construction products are made from nonrenewable and energy-intensive materials such as concrete and steel.
WOODCIRCLES develops solutions for sustainable use and reuse of wood in construction to help the sector to become more renewable and circular. The Travelling Demonstrator is displaying some of the solutions developed.
How to reuse and recycle wood materials from already existing buildings.
How to design wood buildings so that reuse and recycling become easier in the future.
WOODCIRCLES is a project with 19 European partners representing both cities, industry partners, and research institutions, coordinated by the Danish Technological Institute and co-financed by the European Union.
