Episode 9 - Reuse, EODM diagnosis and regulations with Cycle'Up
With Coline Blaison, Cycle'Up's Consulting Director, we discuss the PMCB EPR, the new reuse union, the logistical management of materials and the role of construction industry players in reuse.
Episode summary
In this discussion, Cycle'Up's Nurra Barry and Coline Blaison explore the key aspects of reuse in the building sector, a crucial strategy for reducing construction waste, when less than 1% of building materials are currently reused.
We take a look at the regulatory changes in the pipeline, notably the forthcoming arrival of the PEMD diagnosis to differentiate between potentially reusable and waste material products and equipment, which will no longer be mandatory only for deconstruction but also for renovation.
We also talk about the EPR program currently being set up, with ambitious targets for reuse set at 2% by 2024 and 4% by 2027.
Cycle'Up also presents the creation of a new union for the profession involved in reuse, to facilitate its standardization, not forgetting insurance-related aspects.
Finally, Cycle'Up gives some advice on best practices for architects wishing to integrate reuse on their worksites.
Enjoy!
