LOOP webinar: Piloting circular materials in manufacturing industry

Piloting circular materials in manufacturing industry

Circularity means rethinking use of materials. We are used to taking virgin materials and their high quality for granted. In our webinar we present two angels for recycled materials: how does a premium car manufacturer approach use of recycled plastics? What kind of new business opportunities does replacing plastics offer in the construction industry?

LOOP Webinar 4th June: Piloting circular materials in manufacturing industry

Keynote case: Volvo Cars recycled plastics demo car

Volvo Cars’ ambition is that at least 25% of all plastics in cars launched after 2025 will be made from recycled material. It’s an ambitious goal for a premium automotive manufacturer and can’t be done overnight. To understand better how to make it without compromising on quality and design, Volvo decided to build a pilot car of the XC60 T8 plug-in hybrid. How did the project go and what did Volvo learn from this pilot? Sandra Tostar from Volvo Cars will share the insights with us.

We promise a hands-on approach with many concrete learnings. Short and snappy, 30 minutes per webinar.

LOOP webinar: Revolutionary collaboration to change the apparel industry

Revolutionary collaboration to change the apparel industry

Circular solutions can’t be built alone. New types of collaborations and out of the box thinking is needed to change the traditional, non-sustainable consumption patterns. The fashion industry emits more carbon than international flights and maritime shipping combined.
