About our management
Who steers what at Flanders Circular?
ZORG Leuven wants to focus even more on sustainable purchasing and innovation. Our ultimate goal is a purchasing strategy that generates as little waste as possible. We want to buy products with a long life span that are easy to recycle, and we want to opt for production that uses sustainable energy sources and raw materials that are extracted in an environmentally friendly and socially just manner.
During this project, we want to analyse how we can build circularity into our framework agreement for rental and maintenance of our business textiles. In concrete terms, this concerns flat linen and the working clothes of care providers, cleaners and logistics and technical employees, and the maintenance of the personal linen of care centre residents.
For this, we entered into a dialogue with the sector and our existing suppliers. After all, good cooperation throughout the chain is crucial to achieving good, circular solutions.
The study included an analysis of the purchasing procedure from the preparatory phase with market prospection, legality and feasibility assessment, preparation of the tender, evaluation of the applications and tenders and conformity assessment at start-up.
