Abstract

The concept of circularity is still emerging. This research focuses on how supply chain collaboration impacts the implementation of value retention options when influenced by barriers and triggers for CE in the building environment. Documents are analysed and interviews are conducted among different actors involved in the construction of a new residential area, Ecowieck, in the municipality of Beuningen. Preventive options are present to a high extent while options concerning reutilization are lacking. Customer demand and governmental regulation are important triggers for the implementation of circular initiatives. Increasing costs acts as an important barrier to overcome for CE. Supply chain collaboration can contribute to the implementation of the value retention options when all components are present to a high extent. More collaborative goals concerning circularity should be made and communication and information sharing can improve. Governmental organizations have an important role in the improvement of collaboration among actors in the building environment.
