Sounding of the gong for Madaster
Thomas Rau, board member of the Madaster Foundation, sounds the bell in celebration of the successful first year of the Madaster Platform, and invites the business community to take their financial responsibility within the circular economy.
The Madaster Platform, an independent public platform from which material passports can be generated with the ultimate goal of eliminating waste, worldwide, was launched on 29 September 2017. A large number of big names in the Dutch economy have committed to Madaster’s objectives, over the past year. They are thus contributing to the platform’s development, which, to date, contains registrations for nearly 1,000,000 m2 in floor area. In addition, a national infra-learning environment has been set up, to encourage the reuse of materials in infrastructural projects.
The Madaster Foundation is a Public Benefit Organisation (PBO) — a non-profit organisation with waste elimination as its primary objective. The foundation includes representatives from various economic sectors. It promotes, stimulates and oversees the development and use of material passports, via the Madaster platform for new and existing buildings around the world.
