Checklists

Depending on the initial situation of a building project, circular strategies can be implemented to different extents. For example, a renovation project offers different opportunities than a new construction project with deconstruction or partial deconstruction. It is therefore important to examine the individual possibilities for each project and to implement them as far as possible. As an actor in a circular construction and real estate economy, we invite you to use the following checklist to implement circular strategies in your projects.

The DGNB Building Resource Passport helps to ensure transparency regarding the materials used in construction, the greenhouse gas emissions from buildings and their recyclability.

To make completing the Building Resource Passport easier, the DGNB has compiled an overview of typical pre- and post-use pathways for various material categories. The overview also includes current recycling rates (manufacturing) and recycling quotas (end-of-life) for individual building materials. As well as being used in the context of the Building Resource Passport, the table can be used for research purposes.
