Flooring upcycle of school gymnasium
Last Updated September 12, 2024
Overview of Initiatives
In Yokohama City, due to the construction of a school gymnasium, about 10 solid flooring materials that have completed their role as floors are discarded every year.
Most of them are turned into wood chips and recycled into fuel, but we believe that reusing them as wood is also an important point of view, and we are working on upcycles in cooperation with private business operators.
