It is a model of production and consumption based on the sustainability, reuse and waste minimisation.

This commitment is demonstrated not only by declarations of intent and legislative changes, but also by concrete actions, such as those already being carried out in Spain.

The transformation process underway in the construction and building sector must also consider the challenge of climate change, from the perspective of maximum collaboration between the public sector.

We must give great importance to the design, to the choice of certified materials that do not generate toxicities.

 

In the construction sector, circularity helps to reduce risks in the future value of assets.

It is important to manufacture products that last over time as it is another way of betting on sustainability. If companies do not make circularity accessible to their customers, the planet is hardly going to be.

Investment in the circular economy is the best business because it is for those who do it and also for society. In addition, the university can act as a lever in the process of circularity.
