5 Digital Circular Economy Lessons
Lesson 1: Data/tech does not solve the challenge of collaboration & transparency
Lesson 2: Digital CE can create integrated value by delivering eco + socio-economic value
Lesson 3: Aim for appropriate-tech rather than high-tech; smarter isn’t always smarter
Lesson 4: Digital CE brings opportunities for crowd-driven actions
Lesson 5: Bringing the benefits of transparency to the consumer has brand benefits #WRF19

In order to be able to apply the Machine-as-a-Service model properly, we need to have
completely mastered condition-based monitoring. After all, the equipment will
remain on our balance sheet and at the end of the term of the contract we will take it back.

DIGITAL HARMONY
Best practices in digital transformation suggest that investments in process
improvements, training and reorganisation, must exceed the investment in ICT by a ratio
of 4 or 5 to 1.
• What you need to know about your product:• What’s in it?, in which condition is it?, where is it?,
is it available?
• Be selective about the data you collect for analysis.
• Data sources:
• Don’t underestimate what you can do with contextual data from conventional products,
• but adding smartness and connectivity helps.
• Don’t DIY!
• Digital harmony is what you’re looking for.
• Find the right balance between investments in ICT on the one hand, and training, reorganisation, etc. on the other hand

CE and the future of EU industry
- European Industry - backbone of the Europeaneconomy
- Overcoming the de-industrialisation process:
- 4th industrial revolution to grow strong againand global leader
- But challenges and uncertainties remain:increasing nationalism and protectionism incompetitor countries, high investments fromnew international players
- Environmental challenges – CE opportunity

PRODUCING AND CONSUMING RESPONSIBLY
“The European industry is prepared to respond to the needs of citizens that consume responsibly. Its competitiveness and innovation is built upon complex global value network management and business models based
on Circular Economy principles, as well as on the opportunities that industrial digital transformation and the convergence of novel
technologies offer. European industry contributes to fair value creation, relies on a highly-skilled workforce and its sustainable, resource-efficient
production model is a worldwide reference”
This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 researchand innovation programme under grant agreement No 723633.
CE and the future of EU industry
#WRF19
“European manufacturing in 2030 will be a globally competitive, interconnected and adaptive sociotechnical
value creation system that ensures sustainable growth and social welfare, in a resource-constrained world”
…Europe will be at the forefront in resource efficiency and circular economy implementation, which will contribute to its competitiveness at
global level and support its environmental sustainability.
ManuFUTURE High Level Vision and Strategy for 2030
CE – and the future of EU industry
When it comes to industry and manufacturing,EC is about:
- Reduce, reuse and recycle consumer anddurable goods
- Longer lifetime for products
- CE strategies embedded directly inproduction processes
#WRF19
CE – and the future of EU industry
But…- EU green technology lead to green innovations outside the EU
market
- Limited awareness among companies of economic opportunities:Legal imposition vs. source of economic opportunities /foundation of their business models
- Sustainable lifestyle: Seen as too complex and mismatch withdeep-seated behaviour patterns
- Many triggering factors - The way environmental aspects havebeen taken on board by policy-making
#WRF19
We MUST RETHINK the mechanisms in place to support theEuropean industry and reinforce its competitiveness.

High-quality recycling in a circular building economy
Marc Dillen
General Director
Flemish Construction Confederation (VCB)
The Flemish model is shaped by local factors
• Flanders + Brussels
• approx. 13,900 km²
• 7,341,000 inhabitants
• High population density
• Scarcity of building plots
• Lack of primary granulates
• Limited number of landfill sites
remaining
• High landfill taxes
WRF • 25 February 2019
In Flanders: construction as a frontrunner in waste reuse
C&DW
> 16 million tonnes of CDW / year
Mainly stony fraction (which is 90% of all CDW)
95% recycled
Excavated soil
> 16 million tonnes / year
36% reuse on site
70% reuse off site

The Flemish model: a leader in regulation
• OVAM (Flemish Public Waste Agency)
- works out and implements policy on soil remediation and waste
• End of waste criteria for recycled granulates and for
excavated soil
• Regulations for crushers
• Improves the environmental quality of recycled granulates
• Regulations for temporary storage places
• High landfill & dump taxesWRF • 25 February 2019

Since august 2018• 1200 pre-demolition audits in
database• 97% of buildings contain hazardous
waste (mostly asbestos)
Database and online platform• Building type • Volume• Location• Material list
Circular building economy
• Urban mining
• Data about materials in our cities, in our buildings – material that
will be available at short-term
• Data for setting up recycling plants and boosting recycling
• facilitate the provision of recycled raw materials for other
processing industries
• Use of recycled materials through quality assurance!
• Trust of the potential users of these materials
• Substitute for primary materials
• Better access to insurance policies

The Flemish model: a leader in best practices
• Intensive recycling market based on supply and demand
• Decades-long history of reusing recycled materials for public works
• Technical supervision by an independent third party
• Tracimat and Grondbank
• Provides quality assurance for recycling companies
• Promotes recycling and up-cycling
Basic model can be taken over, with local adjustments and changes to reflect
national regulations
