Reverse local construction supply chains for the beautiful re-assembly of reclaimed construction products
Funds research into re-assembling reclaimed construction products locally, using tools like Digital Product Passports to trace materials and unlock new circular business models.
Award criteria, scoring and thresholds are not detailed on this topic page; they follow Annex D of the Work Programme General Annexes. Funding is paid as a lump sum rather than reimbursed costs. Proposals must apply the circular economy's cascading principle for bio-based materials and, for everything else, the ten-step 10R hierarchy — refuse, reduce, resell or reuse, repair, refurbish, remanufact…
The European Commission wants research into how to safely and creatively re-assemble reclaimed construction products — the stage after disassembly, collection and sorting that has had far less attention so far. Proposals should use digital tools such as Digital Product Passports and reverse construction supply chains, following circular-economy cascading and 10R principles, and build on existing product-pooling networks, logistics hubs or informal reuse markets where possible.
