The Future of Circularity in Technical Building Solutions
Join us for the Final Event of the Nordic Circularity Piloting Program for Technical Building Solutions, organised at Nordbygg fair Stockholm on April 22. The event will also be streamed online. This seminar marks the culmination of a 20‑month Nordic effort, where 21 building sector actors came together to pilot circular economy solutions for technical building equipment in 8 different pilots across Sweden, Finland, and Norway.
At this event, we will share key findings and recommendations from across the entire program and hear directly from the pilot teams, manufacturers, property owners, construction companies and new market enablers, as they present their experiences and results. The showcases will be followed by a commentary and a cross-value-chain panel discussion exploring what it will take to move from individual pilots to mainstream adoption, including the business models, collaboration structures, and policy changes needed to accelerate the transition.
