Building a circular future
*** This is a Dutch-spoken event ***
The construction sector is facing major challenges today: raw materials are becoming scarcer and more expensive, while waste from demolition and construction sites continues to increase. The solution? Circular construction – a future-oriented way of building that focuses on the reuse of building materials, sustainable processes and smart logistics. Because without well-thought-out logistics, there can be no circular construction chain.
Circular construction not only has ecological advantages, but also offers new business opportunities for logistics companies. Reverse logistics, construction hubs and new multimodal forms of collaboration are logistical opportunities that make it possible to better organise construction flows, optimise transport and reduce the ecological footprint at the same time.
Join us for this inspiring afternoon and discover how companies, cities and VIL partners are already working together to build a circular future – smarter, more sustainable and more efficient than ever before.
This event is part of the Industry Partnership. It is supported by VLAIO, which means that Flemish commercial companies can enjoy a reduced rate.
