The Circular Lumber Foil project recently visited Gausdal Treindustrier and Gausdal Landhandleri – two important partners in the work to make the construction industry more circular.
So far, we have collected around 3 tons of used plastic film, which is now being sent to Norfolier GreenTech for recycling and conversion into plastic granules. The granules will then be sent to Haagensen Plast, which will produce new plastic film with 10%, 30% and 50% recycled plastic.
The new plastic will then be returned to Gausdal Treindustrier and Gausdal Landhandleri for practical testing, so that we can evaluate quality and function in real applications. The variant that performs best could become a new standard for more sustainable packaging in the building materials industry.
A project like this requires close collaboration throughout the value chain – Thank you to everyone who helps put circularity into practice! 💪♻️
