Waste Lab Bizkaia

Public-private collaboration model for innovation

WLB is an integral and pioneering solution to waste management, proposing an innovative service model that redefines the lifecycle of waste as a creative raw material. The design solves the fragmentation between waste generators, industry, academia, and the creative sector, creating a physical and digital hub for experimentation and high-value project development. The tangible user benefit includes access to a professional network, materials, technical equipment, and specialized knowledge. It has a unique governance model, resulting from the synergy between a public administration, an environmental business cluster, and a design association.
