Description

Roskilde uses our digital platform to map and manage reusable materials from public renovation and demolition projects. By creating an overview of material flows early in the process, the municipality can repurpose valuable materials—such as doors, lighting, and facade elements—across new building projects, reducing CO₂ emissions and procurement costs. The platform also supports Roskilde in meeting upcoming LCA and selective demolition regulations, while improving coordination across departments and increasing transparency in municipal reuse efforts.

Impact & Result

Environmental Impact: In one project this year, Roskilde Municipality saved 180 tons of CO₂ by reusing building materials from a demolition project. Economic Impact: 85% of the materials were reused at almost no cost, avoiding expenses for both new materials and waste handling.

Solution Spotlight

Manufacturing and construction companies produce important amounts of waste - an average of 360 million tonnes in the manufacturing sector and of 900 million tonnes in the construction sector, in the European Union each year. Upcycling Forum aims at connecting these two sectors with design companies, who upcycle the material into products, and design branding companies, who will then sell the product. Upcycling forums allows product developers to become members and to access special offers. Companies can also go directly on the website and see what materials are relevant for their company and buy them directly. There is a possibility for the companies to trade directly with other companies disposing of their waste in order for them to find the best strategic partnership.
