WHITE PAPER: CIRCULARITY AND REUSE FOR FIT-OUTS AND INTERIORS

Milliken & Company has partnered with Reusefully Ltd to create a White Paper for circularity and reuse for fit-outs and interiors. Reusefully is a partnership created to provide expert circular economy and broader sustainability advice and support within the built environment. 

We spend 80-90% of our time indoors and the offices and other internal spaces we use play a vital role in all our lives. However, the resource and related carbon cost of fitting out interior spaces is significant. The frequency of fit-out can have an enormous and unnecessary environmental cost.

This White Paper explores the circularity and reuse opportunities for fit-outs and interiors. The paper addresses the challenges and showcases some of the latest thinking around a more circular approach for interiors. It shows how material reuse audits can help drive circularity, and how new developments in material passporting, new thinking around collaboration and developments in areas such as the physical storage of materials for reuse are starting to make a difference.
