Manufacturing & circular economy
Portugal

Description

Matterpieces are cladding materials made from demolition waste, minimising the consumption of natural raw materials and diverting waste away from landfills by applying circular economy principles. Matterpieces upcycles typical inert demolition waste, including glass, ceramic, bricks, and old cement, to produce compelling solutions for floor panels, wall coverings, furniture, and countertops. Matterpieces leads a whole new attitude towards circularity, presenting itself not only as a new sustainable material but also as a new movement that brings together demolition/waste management companies, architects, builders, and producers to achieve demolition waste circularity.
