Gold Prize! Leading the world with Sustainability by being awarded The Gold prize at the Better Future Wild Design Awards 2024!
We are thrilled to announce that our software solutions and Forward Thinking Design (FTD) partnership has been recognised for the contribution we make to circularity. It can be said that while sustainability is the end goal, circularity is a step towards that end goal. Circularity is a practice which focuses on reducing waste as much as possible while keeping a product’s value intact for a longer period of time. This award highlights our commitment to sustainability and circular economy principles in the built environment. Learn more about adapting your Asset Management practises towards reducing your environmental impact and achieving your ESG (environmental, social, and governance) objectives.
In collaboration, FTD, Ilimaf and Hardcat, FTD Circular projects transforms built environments into data-enabled asset banks, reducing waste and embodied carbon. Hardcat’s digital tools enable organisations to take a data led circular economy approach to built environment design, construction and de-fit/demolition. This collaborative innovation project began by focussing on fitouts/de-fit and now extends to turning all built environments into valuable asset banks of materials, fixtures, fittings and furnishings data-enabled for trade and ESG reporting.
Hardcat and FTD Circular innovation project has won Gold in the prestigious WILD Design Awards 2024. This accolade underscores our collective commitment to taking a data and design led approach to applying sustainability and circular economy principles in the built environment. The project was then elevated to the Better Future Australian National Awards where we secured another Gold, before winning Gold again on the global stage with the Better Future WILD Design Awards!
