The Gabion Experiment | A Prelude to a Recycling Revolution

At the entrance of New Century Environmental in Renwu Industrial Park, an open urban landscape quietly stands.It is not just a park installation, but the beginning of a systemic revolution in the regeneration of construction waste called the Gabion Experiment.

Deconstructing Material Flow Ep. 3: Material flow management—the construction industry’s path toward circular economy

To achieve its 2050 net-zero target, the Taiwanese government has mandated that the recycling rate for construction waste must increase to 60% by 2025, and reach 75% by 2030. Alongside the carbon fee system taking effect in 2025, the cost of processing each metric ton of waste is expected to rise by NT$300–500. This will significantly reshape waste management strategies across the construction industry.

Deconstructing Material Flow Ep. 2: From waste to regeneration—the supply chain sparking the conversation between Farglory Land and NCKU

In 2023, at a sustainability forum hosted by Chung Hwa Pulp Corporation in Hualien, Professor Shuenn-ren Liou from NCKU’s Department of Architecture introduced the concept of “material flow¹” to analyze the movement of waste in the pulp industry—covering waste types, processing pathways, and connections to recycling supply chains. Among the audience, the Farglory Land team’s eyes lit up: “Isn’t this the answer we’ve been searching for?”

Deconstructing Material Flow Ep. 1: Introducing material flow to construction—inventorying the construction life cycle

Through tracking and analyzing data, Farglory Land and the National Cheng Kung University team quickly discovered that cement, sand, gravel, steel, and other metals account for the largest proportion4 of construction waste. To achieve sustainable development, it is essential to monitor the flow of these materials precisely from the moment they enter a construction site to the end of their life cycle.
