2030 Commitment

 
 
 
 
 
 

Advance the circular economy in the building industry through innovation in materials and business models, collaboration and end-of-life plans that can eliminate and upcycle waste across the product life cycle.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Today, the world is only 7.2% circular. The building industry has a key role to play in developing a circular materials system in which all materials are reused and no materials are wasted.

 
 
 
 
 
 

Reducing Sample Waste through a Take Back Program

Through customer conversations, we identified that Corian® Solid Surface samples represented a circularity opportunity and another way to help our customers reach their own sustainability goals. To reduce waste, we implemented a program for customers to send back their samples – free of charge – to be recycled and/or repurposed.
