Social Enterprises’ Role in Furniture and Mattresses’ Circularity

The Social Enterprises’ Role in Furniture and Mattresses’ Circularity project aims to map RREUSE members’ existing activities in furniture and mattress circularity and facilitate knowledge sharing and partnerships among social enterprises within our network.

The project will culminate in a research report featuring a series of case studies showcasing successful initiatives involving furniture and mattress circularity. This will help identify the potential for scaling these services, the bottlenecks involved, and the measures to address them. This project serves as an essential first step in a longer-term effort to create a more cohesive and impactful ecosystem where social enterprises play a significant role in the reuse and recycling of bulky waste.

This project is funded by IKEA Social Entrepreneurship.
