Throughout this process, technical and logistical challenges, such as variability in material properties and ensuring reliable performance, are addressed to meet structural integrity requirements. This approach enables reclaimed wood to be reintegrated into high-performance construction applications, advancing circular timber practices and promoting greater reuse within the built environment.

As World Green Building Week 2026 puts the spotlight on the future of the built environment, the WOODCIRCLES project is bringing circular construction principles to life with the first full installation of its Travelling Demonstrator in Tartu, Estonia.
The Woodcircles Travelling Demonstrator has arrived in Tartu, Estonia, marking the first stop of its journey across Europe. Installed in front of the Estonian National Museum (ERM), the full-scale wooden structure brings the principles of circular construction to life and invites visitors to explore how buildings can be designed for reuse rather than demolition. The launch marks an important milestone for the project, bringing years of research, collaboration and innovation into a tangible experience that demonstrates how circular approaches can transform the future of timber construction.
A new chapter is about to begin for Woodcircles. After months of planning, design, coordination and collaboration across the project, the Woodcircles Travelling Demonstrator is getting ready to start its journey across Europe.
