Theoretical Framework for the C2C NetworkNadine Ghanem - Dirk Le Roy (Sustenuto)
Peter Stouthuysen – Karl Vrancken (VITO)

Objective of the Cradle to Cradle framework
» To explain the common vision that governs the network and that will be expressed in the action plans
» Provide common introductory chapter for each of the perspective studies - guidance on “What could be the role of Cradle to Cradle in relation to:
» Building» Spatial development» Industry» Governance

Team
» Core team:» VITO: sustainable materials management and C2C
experts» Sustenuto: C2C consultant and strategic C2C partner
» Sounding board» Karel Van Acker, KULeuven, Materials Research
Centre» Douglas Mulhall, C2C Academic Chair at DRIFT,

Approach
» Description of C2C concept, principles, applications and terminology
» Discuss at Target Area Workshops» Outcome is a general introduction to C2C» Resume of C2C theoretical framework is used in each of
the four perspective studies (Chapter 1 of the perspective study)

General framework - Background
» Growing awareness something has to change:» Last decades growing welfare but well-being?» What about next decades?
» Action is needed and is also taken:
» initally defensive (cost reduction waste, compliance with law)
» collaborative (preventive approach)» active approach (product responsibility, life cycle
analysis, eco- efficiency)
Will this be enough?Will this be enough?

General framework – Cradle to Cradle concept
» Need for a goal – where do we want to go to and how we can achieve this?
» Braungart and McDonough introduce the Cradle to Cradle concept» Broader framework: eco-effectiveness
Eco-effectiveness Eco-efficiency “Doing the right things” “Doing the things right”
“maximise positive “minimise negative effects”
effects”

General framework - Principles
Act as nature» Waste equals food» Use current solar income» Celebrate diversity

C2C Network – Limburg principles
» Limburg principles are a regional interpretation of C2C
» C2C Network is inspired by ‘Limburg Principles’» We are native to our place » Our waste is our food » The sun is our income » Our air, soil and water are healthy » We design enjoyment for all generations » We provide enjoyable mobility for all

General framework - Applications
» Products, processes, buildings, business models, spatial areas,… are inspired by the Cradle to Cradle concept and its principles
» Only for products is there currently a validation tool:» C2C™-certificate – safe, healthy and reusable materials
» The C2C Network project ambition is to understand the potential role of Cradle to Cradle for applications in:
» Industry» Buildings» Spatial area» And role of governance

Cradle to Cradle and Industry
» 3 levels of applying Cradle to Cradle to industry
» Product – 3 C2C principles, human and environmental health criteria
» Supply Chain – knowledge of materials, reverse logistics
» Business Processes – innovative, sales to lease
