Cities and the circular economy- Yorkon case study
Yorkon is one of the UK’s leading modular building manufacturers whose buildings do just that. This off-site manufacturer pieces together the final building in situ. In itself, this can be a money and time-saver, as there is less disruption than would be the case for an on-site build. Noise and air pollution are also minimised due to the speed of installation (new construction techniques, such as 3D printing and off-site prefabrication, can reduce construction time by 50-70%).
The Ellen MacArthur Foundation works to accelerate the transition to a circular economy. We develop and promote the idea of a circular economy, and work with business, academia, policymakers, and institutions to mobilise systems solutions at scale, globally.
