What is the protocol monitoring Living Lab projects - BuildingCircular?

In the context of circular building and reuse of raw materials, BouwCirculair B.V. has commissioned SKG-IKOB certification to draw up a generic protocol for the monitoring of Living Lab projects. The purpose of this protocol is to determine whether products and raw materials that promote circularity and/or contribute to a better environmental profile provide the same or better technical performance than traditional solutions. 

Living lab projects will be carried out in such a way that a comparison is made with the traditional way of building. This can be done by carrying out part of the project using traditional products and/or raw materials and part of the project using circular products and/or raw materials. 

The Living Lab project should make a potential contribution to the (inter)national objective for circularity and reduction of C02 emissions.
