Already next Tuesday June 25th, we'll have our 2nd meeting of our new workgroup "Circular Design & Production". Which, in my view, is one of the most interesting topics for composites today. Often seen as difficult to recycle, in the last few years there has been made major progress, with lots of new technologies, so that today we can say that all composites can be recycled, and even in cost effective and sustainable ways. Next, we foresee a new way of designing composite parts, not only on minimising weight and cost as we always did in the past, but also on design for recycling. And not only that, also designing with recycled materials. Exciting topics to be treated in presentations from expert speakers and a round table discussion in our upcoming workgroup meeting. #circularity #design #recycling #composites

The sustainable biomaterial can potentially be applied as a tiling system for smaller components in buildings. https://lnkd.in/eGsvJsfp #greenmaterial #greenconstruction #greenbuilding #greenhousegas

Beyond Trends: Designing with purpose and responsibility – a movement that says ditch the trend, embrace the purpose. Say no to plastics and composites and yes to sustainably sourced wood. Natural materials allow for designs that transcend seasons, reducing the urge for constant consumption. #OnlyNatural #Studentdesigncompetition #onlynaturalstudentdesigncompetition https://lnkd.in/egeV-hxH

Wolf in steel : The power of sustainable art with cracking art Famous for its large animal installations, Cracking Art's art philosophy raises environmental awareness by using recycled materials. This approach brings together aesthetic and environmental values through artistic products that emerge from recycling steel factory waste. According to the famous author of The Jungle Book, Rudyard Kipling, "the strength of the pack is the wolf, and the strength of the wolf is the pack." Based on this philosophy, the pack can be seen as a power center formed by individuals who recognize each other. This harmony and solidarity within the group form the basis of success and, in addition to being strong, also entail being responsible.

#SaturdayInDesign with a difference! It was a refreshingly different experience for me this year, attending Stylecraft for a panel discussion curated by Nicole Johnson on the next generation of materials....a conversation that desperately needs to be had about evolving our material and product supply chain towards a #circulareconomy. And so full of hope and excitement to hear what's actually happening. Highlights of the discussion... - Su-Fern Tan's overview of the GBCA's new fitout tool in late stage development...focusing on circularity, to build less and build well, and carbon reduction. - Andrea Rossetto introduced PaperShell - a new circular, carbon negative and fully biodegradable seating material being used to replace polypropylene in the classic Catifa chair. - Ben Rennie's analogy of approaching building to Coco Chanel's infamous fashion rule... "Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take at least one thing off" (love this, on so many levels!) - And finally, new materials superstar ⭐ Veena Sahajwalla, who after solving for one issue by inventing Green Ceramics manufactured from waste, has turned her attention to the re-invention of aluminium through it's extraction from the humble potato chip packet...so many possibilities! It's truly an exciting time for the future of materials & circularity in the built environment. To see concepts that have been merely talked of in abstract terms for years start to take a practical shape suggests that change is here. #futurematerials #circularity Indesign Media Asia Pacific, Design Declares Australia, Green Building Council of Australia, CBRE, UNSW Engineering, Arper, Reny Studio, Stylecraft

For decades, giants like 3M, DuPont, and Dow have set the standard in materials. But today’s world demands more—more sustainability, creativity, innovation and flexibility. And that’s where we come in. At Glasst, we’re not just competing; we’re creating. Our ability to develop new materials and products for the world—like Unpaint, a carbon-negative, and first architectural (removable) peelable paint—is proof that innovation can happen at price parity with traditional options. We’re driving game-changing solutions for construction, design, and beyond, offering new possibilities without breaking the bank. Sustainability shouldn’t come at a premium, and we’re proving that innovation, affordability, and environmental impact can go hand in hand. Thank you to Fast Company for showcasing Unpaint and our vision for a new future in materials. The journey is just beginning, and we’re excited to redefine what’s possible. Please share if you think is worth it!

#Innovation is required to implement #solutions. For a genuine #circulareconomy based on Cradle to Cradle, every product would have to be redeveloped. This is exactly what is happening now. There are already solutions for everything from water bottles, through toner cartridges, detergents and wall paints, to entire Cradle to Cradle-based houses.  Read blog article by our colleague Dr. Thomas Greve to learn more about the first Cradle to Cradle-based building in Hamburg and other future-oriented projects https://lnkd.in/e3ubNTaZ (Photo: Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 4.0 International license)
