Abstract
This policy paper provides guidance on how to implement materials passports and accelerate material reuse in construction. The purpose of this paper is to enable the widespread adoption of materials passports to support a circular economy. We propose an achievable deliverable for all projects and advocate for the creation of policy to support this. This policy paper provides a suit of guidance and templates to facilitate the immediate and comprehensive adoption of materials passporting across Architecture, Engineering and Construction industry.
