Across the valuechain, the 11 partners including the Design school in Kolding, three Danish regions, three universities, and more, met for the third time to solidify a list of targeted products that will be thoroughly assessed throughout the project. These range from textiles to protective equipment, and packaging commonly found in healthcare facilities and which have great potential for circularity.

The overall mission of the CircleHealth project is to reduce waste and CO2 emissions and we do that through close collaboration across the value chain and with the healthcare professionals at the Danish hospitals. One partner in the project is the Danish manufacturer of healthcare equipment, ABENA, who hosted the meeting and offered a detailed tour of their impressive production on-site in Aabenraa.

We are looking forward to our further work together and to see what we will accomplish together.
