With the lecture “Mapping EU Companies from the CEE Region Excelling in Sustainable and Circular Practices in Construction,” we joined the workshop “Enhancing Circular and Sustainable Practices in Construction” on January 23, 2025. During the event, we presented the development phase of the pilot eco construction findings under the GREET CE project.
The well-attended workshop featured expert presentations on guidelines for green public procurement in construction, circular and low-carbon (waste and bio based) construction products, circular construction strategies, safe use of secondary construction materials, and the preparation of a construction materials cadastre, along with the new regulation on construction products.
The speakers also shared valuable experiences from their ongoing research and activities in the field, highlighting the environmental impact and potential risks and opportunities of reused, recycled, bio based and waste-based building materials, carbon footprint comparisons and the implementation of European policies ahead.
The workshop took place at the Slovenian National Building and Civil Engineering Institute (ZAG) in Ljubljana in person.
