📣 BLADES2BUILD was presented at the 4th International Conference on Sustainable Building Materials, organized and hosted by the Eindhoven University of Technology from 10 to 13 August 2025!

📌 BLADES2BUILD, together with the CIRCULess project, organised a Special Session inside the conference.

💡 Our partners Eindhoven University of Technology, DTU – Technical University of Denmark, RWTH Aachen University/Institute of Building Materials Research at RWTH Aachen University (ibac), and Global Consulting Sustainability AS, with Maria Kosarli, were there!

📍 Let’s see what our partners presented:

1) Tao Liu -DTU – Technical University of Denmark presented “Can wind turbine blade waste be used as a cementitious material?”

2) Ceren Duyal Kulak – Eindhoven University of Technology presented “Incorporation of Shredded Wind Turbine Blade Waste in Concrete Using a Packing Approach”

3) Haris Paraskevoulakos – DTU – Technical University of Denmark presented “Applying X-Ray Computed Tomography (XCT) to investigate fibre reinforced 3D printed concrete (FR3DPC)”

and 4) Patrick Rubaszewski – RWTH Aachen University presented “Potential Applications of Mechanically Recycled Wind Turbine Blades in Concrete”

👉 A big thank you to the organizers and volunteers for creating such a well-curated, welcoming space for sharing ideas, challenges, and solutions. The sessions, networking, and hallway conversations have given us fresh insights and new connections that will help us move our work forward!
