The logistics demonstration and experience center

Premiere Circular Logistics

*This is a Dutch-spoken event*

On 4 September, LogiVille will host the premiere of the brand new experience space CILO. A first for Flanders, which is a forerunner in circular economy.

Logistics play an important role in the transition to a sustainable circular society. In an unparalleled, interactive immersive room, you will discover how to make the shift from linear to circular logistics – from use to reuse, from dismantling to value recovery. CILO brings the entire process to life, in a way you won’t experience anywhere else.

During the opening ceremony, in the presence of Prime Minister Matthias Diependaele, you will get a first-hand look at how to turn circular supply chains into a successful business model. As a matter of fact, this is already possible today: socially & locally, but also on a global scale.

CILO is an ERDF project and was co-funded by the European Union.
