1 06/11/2015 Theoretical Framework for the C2C Network Nadine Ghanem - Dirk Le Roy (Sustenuto) Peter Stouthuysen – Karl Vrancken (VITO)

2 2 © 2010, Sustenuto / VITO NV Objective of the Cradle to Cradle framework »To explain the common vision that governs the network and that will be expressed in the action plans »Provide common introductory chapter for each of the perspective studies - guidance on “What could be the role of Cradle to Cradle in relation to: »Building »Spatial development »Industry »Governance

3 3 © 2010, Sustenuto / VITO NV Team »Core team: »VITO: sustainable materials management and C2C experts »Sustenuto: C2C consultant and strategic C2C partner »Sounding board »Karel Van Acker, KULeuven, Materials Research Centre »Douglas Mulhall, C2C Academic Chair at DRIFT, Erasmus University Rotterdam

4 4 © 2010, Sustenuto / VITO NV Approach »Description of C2C concept, principles, applications and terminology »Discuss at Target Area Workshops »Outcome is a general introduction to C2C »Resume of C2C theoretical framework is used in each of the four perspective studies (Chapter 1 of the perspective study)

5 5 © 2010, Sustenuto / VITO NV Task 1 Develop draft framework document Launch Event Task 2 Target area seminars feedback 4 Target area seminars Task 3 Finalisation of framework document Task 4 Implementation and dissemination Steering Committee Executive Board External experts C2CNetwork European Commission C2CNetwork Experts sounding board feedback

6 6 © 2010, Sustenuto / VITO NV General theoretical framework: Introduction to Cradle to Cradle »Background »The Cradle to Cradle concept »The Cradle to Cradle principles »Cradle to Cradle applications

8 8 © 2010, Sustenuto / VITO NV General framework - Background »Growing awareness something has to change: »Last decades growing welfare but well-being? »What about next decades? »Action is needed and is also taken: »initally defensive (cost reduction waste, compliance with law) »collaborative (preventive approach) »active approach (product responsibility, life cycle analysis, eco- efficiency) Will this be enough?

9 9 © 2010, Sustenuto / VITO NV General framework – Cradle to Cradle concept »Need for a goal – where do we want to go to and how we can achieve this? »Braungart and McDonough introduce the Cradle to Cradle concept »Broader framework: eco-effectiveness Eco-effectiveness Eco-efficiency “Doing the right things” “Doing the things right” “maximise positive “minimise negative effects” effects”

11 11 © 2010, Sustenuto / VITO NV General framework - Principles Act as nature »Waste equals food »Use current solar income »Celebrate diversity

12 12 © 2010, Sustenuto / VITO NV C2C Network – Limburg principles »Limburg principles are a regional interpretation of C2C »C2C Network is inspired by ‘Limburg Principles’ »We are native to our place »Our waste is our food »The sun is our income »Our air, soil and water are healthy »We design enjoyment for all generations »We provide enjoyable mobility for all

13 13 © 2010, Sustenuto / VITO NV General framework - Applications »Products, processes, buildings, business models, spatial areas,… are inspired by the Cradle to Cradle concept and its principles »Only for products is there currently a validation tool: »C2C™-certificate – safe, healthy and reusable materials »The C2C Network project ambition is to understand the potential role of Cradle to Cradle for applications in: »Industry »Buildings »Spatial area »And role of governance

14 14 © 2010, Sustenuto / VITO NV Cradle to Cradle and Industry »3 levels of applying Cradle to Cradle to industry »Product – 3 C2C principles, human and environmental health criteria »Supply Chain – knowledge of materials, reverse logistics »Business Processes – innovative, sales to lease
