Ecomondo 2025 workshop brings together W2W, ReBoat, CIRCULess and EcoRefibre to advance circular innovation by increasing secondary raw materials recovery across sectors

EU-funded Wood2Wood project will be conducting a knowledge exchange workshop on “Recovering Value from Secondary Raw Materials” with three other EU-funded projects in Ecomondo 2025 in Rimini, Italy between 4-7 November. The workshop will take place on Tuesday, November 4, 10:00-13:00 pm CET in Camelia Room near Hall B6 inside the exhibition.

The objective is to discuss and disseminate project outcomes that advance circularity ambitions of the European Union by way of increasing secondary raw materials availability and uptake by value chain actors and identify future collaboration opportunities.

Here are the participating projects:

Wood2Wood Project: Transform unused wood waste from construction, demolition, and furniture into valuable products. To do this, W2W proposes a comprehensive framework for multi-dimensional cascade valorisation of wood from C&D and furniture waste, consisting of four core components/pillars: 1) Advanced Separation and Sorting Technologies; 2) Upcycling Processes and Technologies; 3) Digital Tools for Improving Circular Flows of Secondary Materials; and 4) Supportive Framework in Policy, Market, and Skills

ReBoat Project: Circular Solution for Sustainable Tourism in EU Islands by Movable Plant and Co-Creation with Island Stakeholders

EcoRefibre Project: EcoReFibre develops optimised and efficient state-of-the-art solutions to extract fibres from waste wood, ultimately increasing available wood resources in Europe through recycling.  

CIRCULess Project: Upcycling mineral and timber-based waste from construction and manufacturing process industries through eco-design, advanced logistics, quality control and digital solutions.
