Buildings contain valuable materials that can be reused or recycled. When a building is demolished, these materials end up in landfills instead of being recovered. Companies like SundaHus are developing new business models to view buildings as "material banks" and recover high value materials like steel, concrete, and wood for reuse in new construction projects to create a circular economy.
