Mattress Recycling Council's Industry Workgroup on Circular Design
The purpose of the industry workgroup is to:
- Discuss whether current materials and assembly techniques will pose recycling challenges when mattresses reach the end of consumer use
- Inform materials suppliers, designers, and manufacturers about recycler deconstruction challenges and discuss how product design affects post-consumer materials management
- Explore methods to improve the circularity of mattresses by reducing manufacturing waste and encouraging design and manufacturing practices that consider the recycling value of post-consumer mattress materials, while balancing product function and durability
This meeting is the continuation of several discussions about mattress circularity and recycling challenges. MRC’s objective in this meeting is to help mattress component suppliers, product designers, and mattress manufacturers take deconstruction challenges faced by mattress recyclers into account when developing and assembling products.
