Welcome to SIRCULAR!
Join us as we decarbonise the built environment while prioritising people and communities!
About
SIRCULAR is coordinated by RINA-C and combines the expertise of 22 partners from six European countries, including universities, SMEs, NGOs, and industries. During the next three-and-a-half-years, SIRCULAR will transform the building sector into a circular and sustainable industry, aligned with the Built4People partnership principles.
We will test and demonstrate innovative technologies and services across four regional clusters: initially in Estonia and Spain, followed by Germany and Greece. These clusters will engage construction companies, housing companies, universities, and local administrative entities, focusing on buildings owned or occupied by vulnerable population groups, in line with the SIRCULAR just and affordable transition approach.
