RETRACKING: towards a circular economy
September 2018 · Sustainability
The Retracking project offers a better way to recover fibre-reinforced composites, using traceability to allow recycled FRC products to be recovered more than once.
The Retracking project offers a better way to recover fibre-reinforced composites (FRC). Products made from recycled FRC will be recoverable more than once, thanks to better traceability. Supporting that is a new management strategy for FRC waste recovery, based on analysing and recording the materials so that this "secondary raw material" can be identified and traced — the condition for moving from a linear economy to a circular one.
