The European Commission -DG GROW- has worked closely with several European stakeholdersit to present the document Circular Economy Principles for Buildings’ Degisng.
This document gathers all the points of view of the stakeholders involved in the construction sector, from its initial conception to the end of its useful life, in order to apply the principles of circular economy and resource efficiency.
To showcase the key deliverables achieved so far and to debate future deliverables with stakeholders, the Commission and the European Economic and Social Committee organised a Circular Economy Stakeholder Conference last 9-10 March 2017 in Brussels.

A new study suggests that European buildings built in the 1950s, 60s and 70s may contribute towards levels of toxins in the body. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were found at elevated levels in children that lived in houses and studied in schools built during this period, before PCBs were more thoroughly regulated in the construction industry.
This case study aims at analysing the characteristics of favourable innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystems for the development of emerging industries and clusters in the area of circular economy.
Wastewater sludge is widely used to remove toxic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from soil, and yet the mechanisms underlying this process remain unclear. A new study reveals the extent of PAH removal following different treatments, and could provide a useful resource for those looking to diminish the effects that these pollutants have both on people and on the environment.
