From 5–10 October 2021 FiberEUse project results were showcased in a curated exhibition at Superstudio Piu during Milan Design Week. 

The exhibition entitled 'FiberEUse – Circular Products for a Sustainable Future ‘, curated by Origoni Steiner, presented comprehensible insights, data, products and solutions of FiberEUse to a wide audience. The location Superstudio Piu in the centre of Milan attracted more than 30.000 visitors and achieved numerous articles in various media (broadsheets, national TV, Social Media). We are pleased about the huge interest of visitors regarding the pressing issue of developing new circular economy value-chains based on the reuse of end-of-life fiber reinforced composites from the wind energy, automotive and construction industries.

The transition to a circular economy is a system change, which calls for a rethinking of linear processes in favor of recyclable products and product service systems. In order to ensure a  sustainable development on economic, social, and ecological levels, the United Nations have agreed to reach a total of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030. The responsibility to implement these goals resides equally with both designers and manufacturers. Designers mediate between all actors involved in the development process and can thereby create transparency. For this information exchange to be successful, the H2020-project FiberEUse provides designers and manufacturers with comprehensible design guidelines, standards and tips to help realize the sustainability goals.
