- Loopfront offers a digital reuse platform for furniture, building materials and other assets. It combines an inventory system, an internal marketplace within an organisation, and an external marketplace for reuse between companies. It provides live reporting and automated documentation of cost, CO₂ and waste reductions.
- The article says many organisations lack simple ways to identify, register and manage reusable assets. Materials may become waste because organisations do not know what is available, where it is stored or how it can be used in future projects. The stated consequences are unnecessary purchases, higher disposal costs and missed sustainability targets.
- The platform manages resources across departments, locations and projects. Employees can list and order available items through its internal marketplace; the inventory tracks what is in stock and where it is located. It supports property management and relocation by identifying what should be reused, where and when. Construction projects can be surveyed for reusable materials and to check compliance with technical building regulations.
- An AI-assisted survey tool suggests product information to speed item registration. Items can be shared with project teams, listed internally or offered externally. Automated live reports document cost, CO₂ and waste reductions as evidence of environmental impact.
- Loopfront says more than 90 public and private organisations use the platform across Norway, Sweden and Germany, including municipalities, government agencies, banks and real estate companies. Its open marketplace lets companies sign up to order surplus items from Loopfront customers.
