Material Passports offer an opportunity to gather and organise data about materials contained within a building, which in turn enable material reuse. In this policy paper, we propose a series of recommendations which will enable meaningful material reuse.
Our ambition is to create a process that is clear enough to understand, simple enough to use and cost effective to implement, to ultimately change how we value our existing and future built environment.
This work has been developed in collaboration with Lancaster University, with funding provided by the Arts and Humanities Research Council
The templates will be available for download shortly, please check back again soon.

Materials Passports: Accelerating Material Reuse in Construction
As an industry, we must do better, and the fastest way to achieve this is by sharing our knowledge and collaborating on meaningful solutions.
Therefore we invite you to implement Materials Passporting on your project, please get in touch at materialpassports@orms.co.uk to join our network.
In return, all we ask is that you share your experience, findings and solutions back with us, so that the research can continue to evolve.
This is an exciting time, and we look forward to collaborating with partners as we advance towards a Circular Economy.
