Webinar on Circular Economy and innovative materials with the partecipation of architect Marco Capellini . The meeting will take place online Wednesday, October 14 at 17.30 on the Zoom platform.
The event is part of the cycle of webinars “Digital Way 2020” organized by Marche Innovation Hub in partnership with the territorial CNAs of Fermo and Macerata, to inform companies about new industrial strategies.
A roadmap for the measurement of circularity, is the title of the article that Arch Marco Capellini, CEO of Matrec, wrote for magazine Management of Utilities and Infrastructures edited by Agici Finanza d’Impresa. In this article is explained how is possible to develop a circularity measurement path for products or services, considering functional KPIs connected to the project. For companies is important to be able to build their roadmap according to the improvement goals to be achieved.
The roadmap for measuring circularity was presented and discussed for the first time at a meeting of the Alliance for the Circular Economy, which today counts 17 companies such as A2A, Aquafil, Bvlgari, Cassa Depositi e Prestiti, Cetena (Fincantieri Group), CIRFOOD, Costa Crociere, Enel, ERG, FaterSMART, Gruppo Hera, Intesa Sanpaolo, NextChem (Maire Tecnimont Group), Novamont, Salvatore Ferragamo, TH-Resorts and Touring Club Italiano.
Architect Marco Capellini talks about his approach to sustainability and circular economy, presenting to Plast magazine, new composite materials made from recycled rubber, thanks to a collaboration with Ecopneus.
Starting from the intrinsic potential of the material and its performance characteristics, the challenge is to develop new materials solutions could be a suggestions to the world of business and design.
The ennoblement of these semi-finished products was articulated through the coupling of rubber rolls with other types of materials such as wood, felt and fabrics, and realization of material mix between recycled rubber granule with other materials such as moss, straw and cork.
The new materials are present in the “First Italian Catalogue of Products Made from Recycled Rubber“. They are distinguished by greater aesthetics, functionality, technical characteristics and possibility of customization.

On June 10, 2020 from 14.55 to 16.00, will take place the webinar “MEASURE AND CERTIFY THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY” organized by Bureau Veritas, which will be attended as a speaker by arch. Marco Capellini.
The event is aimed to present a new technical protocol to measure the performance of circularity of products, services and projects, implementing the principles of circular economy.
The protocol, developed by Matrec with support of Bureau Veritas Italia, is divided into 3 main tools:
– Circular Materials Mapping Company (Material Capital),
– Circular Materials Mapping Product,
– Circular Economy Performance.
The protocol is characterized by specifications that can also be used for certification proces.
The Certification can be applly to two different areas:
1. measurement and reporting of the material balance,
2. reporting of improvements achieved and communication to stakeholders.

What are the environmental sustainability scenarios for the coming years? How will the circular economy change companies’ market strategies? And again, what will be the new consumption patterns?
Marco Capellini, expert on sustainable innovation and circular economy, who support companies to develop sustainability strategies, answered the questions of the weekly magazine Affari&Finanza of La Repubblica.
Sunday, November 24, 2019 Marco Capellini, will speak at the talk “Upcycling: from environmental to social value” at the EDIT space in via Maroncelli n.14, 16.00 – 18.00.
MarkeTEAM Upcycling days is a new generation social initiative, designed and promoted by Adriana Fortunato, Barbara Vergnano e Caterina Fumagalli.

In response to the EU Action Plan for the Circular Economy, Marco Capellini, expert in environmental strategies and sustainability, will speak at the seminar promoted by Bureau Veritas to talk about circular materials, Materials Mapping and circularity measurement.
The event is aimed at companies of all sizes and sectors that want to introduce a model aimed at the efficient use of resources, reviewing their production processes in a circular logic.
Bureau Veritas Italy – Viale Monza, 347
14 November 2019 – 9.30 a.m. – 12.30 p.m.
Program and registration for the event.
Italia Circolare, an online magazine dedicated to the excellence of Italian environmental sustainability, interviewed Marco Capellini, who talks about his strategic consultancy activity in the field of circular economy.
For years in the market, the arch. Capellini in collaboration with Matrec supports companies in the search for sustainable and innovative materials; helps businessmen to strategically address the problem of waste from production processes, explaining to them how to make it a resource and a new raw material; or guides them in the choice of new circular materials (from recycling or renewable sources) to make their own products.
The arch. Marco Capellini, CEO of Matrec, will speak at the Energy Festival at the spaces of Triennale Milano to talk about circular economy.
In this main national event, this year we will discuss possible solutions to facilitate the transition to more sustainable energy systems.
The environmental challenges of recent years present new opportunities that, also thanks to our production traditions, can be easily applied and developed in Italy: the circular economy is one of the most attractive and promising. Both good practices and economic and political strategies can favour and concretely launch initiatives based on the recovery and revaluation of waste materials, with innovation and competitiveness.
