Materials Passports - Best Practice. Innovative Solutions for a Transition to a Circular Economy in the Built Environment
Open accessAbstract
This publication provides guidelines for actors along the construction value chain and shows the benefits of materials passports and how these can be implemented into general building practice. Furthermore, the publication provides an overview on the types of material and product-relates information. Standardized information exchange is one of the keys for a successful transition to a circular economy.

MP should be seen as key tools to promote a circular economy and resource efficiency in construction because they can provide digital sets of data describing defined characteristics of materials and components in products and systems that give them value for present use, recovery, and reuse.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
