Waste streams are rapidly being converted into raw materials through the development of new technologies, applications and business models.Scientists and entrepreneurs who are enabling the transition to a circular, zero waste economy need to connect with potential partners such as business organizations, municipalities or business developers. Cleantech Delta and its partners TNO, Milgro Groep B.V. and Woonstad Rotterdam are organizing: The Future of (no) Waste.

Be there on June 25 at the Rotterdam Science Tower. During the first part of the event, three experts will speak about, urban waste as a resource, circular product design and highlight national and international best practices. Next, several innovators will present their solution related to a waste problem in one of three sectors:plastics, organic waste and the built environment.

Marc van der Heijden, director of TRIBOO, the circular supply chain that turns 'worthless' waste streams into 'valuable' circular office furnishings with upcyling techniques, shows on the basis of circular products how to make circular economy and waste-free society practical in a simple way in your own office. The office becomes a resource bank of healthy materials. He also explains how a circular business model works and how it makes money for the end user at the end of its useful life instead of costing them money.

Circular products do not end up in landfills or incinerators. From the same raw materials a different application is made that can change with people and organizations time after time after time.
