Collaborative project aimed at designing and validating viable circular business models involving the participation and benefit of various companies in the construction sector, materials valorisation, and C&DW management. The project highlights the importance of exploring business models associated with the valorisation of C&DW, either through their transformation to create new recycled construction materials or by fostering commercial channels for the reuse of viable materials.
