Circularity in practice - An initiative by His Majesty the King for delivering material change

United Kingdom
From 27/03/2026 10:00:00 to 27/03/2026 11:00:00 local time
  • Most businesses want to do the right thing, yet despite many examples of good practice, the circular management of goods and materials is still too often considered late in the process instead of from the outset. From building materials to light fittings and furniture, the majority of items businesses discard are suitable to be reused, refurbished, remanufactured, or recycled.

     

    Join our panel of experts representing founding members of this taskforce as they discuss the initiative’s launch, its ambitions, and how organisations across the UK can get involved. You’ll also have the chance to put your questions to specialists working across design, architecture, construction, refurbishment, and resource management.

     

    What you will learn:

    • How circular management of materials can move from an afterthought to a core business practice.
    • The goals of the Circularity in practice initiative and how it is being rolled out across sectors and regions.
    • Practical actions businesses can take to design out waste and adopt reuse, refurbishment, remanufacturing, and recycling.
    • Insights from designers, architects, builders, refurbishers, and resource managers on real world circularity challenges and solutions.
    • What signing the Circularity in practice pledge means for your organisation—and how to get involved in driving circular change.
