Key Product Modules
1. Upcyclea Construction Module
- Building Passports: Converts BIM models or Excel BOMs (Bill of Materials) into a live digital inventory of a building's entire material composition.
- Digital Product Passports (DPPs): Integrates with an open-source library of over 20,000 verified DPPs, characterizing individual products with standardized ESG data (embodied carbon, health levels, recyclability, demountability, and circularity indices).
- Real-Time Inflow Data: Tracks environmental metrics on incoming materials during design, construction, and renovation phases.
2. Upcyclea Reuse Module
- AI Matching Engine: Connects available material supply with market demand, concurrently optimizing for carbon footprint, logistics costs, and financial value.
- Pre-Demolition Audits (PDAs): Digitalizes audit data to map outgoing materials and prepare them for reuse rather than landfill disposal.
- Urban Mining Networks (ROMULUS / PIRÉE): Facilitates local material trading across networks of asset owners, social landlords, manufacturers, and contractors, supported by 2,000+ logistics partners for collection, storage, and transport.
- Noah Search Engine: Cross-references thousands of available, reconditioned, or deconstructed products across regions by price, distance, and carbon impact.
3. Upcyclea Reporting & Portfolio Module
- Automated ESG Compliance: Auto-generates reports aligned with major frameworks including UK SRS (S2), European CSRD (E1, E3, E5), RICS Whole-Life Carbon, RE2020, BREEAM, LEED, WELL, LCBI, Green Mark 21, ISO 14044, and EN 15978.
- Portfolio Consolidation: Tracks Scope 3 emissions across multiple assets and subsidiaries, providing a strategic decarbonization roadmap.
- Dual Inflow & Outflow KPI Dashboard:
- Inflow Metrics: Embodied carbon, carbon intensity, health levels, toxicity, reuse share, recycled/biosourced content, circularity index, and demountability scores.
- Outflow Metrics: Operational impact including total $\text{CO}_2$ avoided through reuse, waste diverted from landfills, water saved, and total economic value recovered from deposits.
Professional Support & Certification Services
- Cradle to Cradle (C2C) Assessment & Certification: Offers Pre-Audits and Full Certifications to verify that specified products meet health, circularity, and low-carbon criteria. Certified products are published in the DPP library for platform users.
- Pre-Demolition Audit Execution: On-site material characterization designed specifically for AI data integration and material recovery.
