ResiLoop is an initiative of ARFA to research and design an Australian resilient flooring stewardship scheme. The project is funded by the Australian Government through the National Product Stewardship Investment Fund.
ResiLoop aims to develop a business case, supported by a proof of concept, for a national product stewardship scheme for resilient floor coverings in Australia. This includes a scheme design incorporating material flow analysis, reverse logistics, sorting and recycling technologies, feedstock demand and recyclate use.
The project is engaging participants across the resilient flooring supply chain, undertaking research and conducting recycling and reverse logistics field trials to test and refine various approaches in both residential and commercial sectors. The trials and findings will inform the design and development of a national, commercially viable, waste recovery and recycling scheme that demonstrates a strong product stewardship approach.

Have a say and join the Stakeholder Reference Group
Industry executives and key decision-makers with technical and professional expertise across the resilient flooring value chain and relevant collaborative sectors, are invited to register interest in participating in the ResiLoop Stakeholder Reference Group (SRG).
The purpose and intention of the SRG is to provide an opportunity for stakeholders to act as a consultative forum and sounding-board for the project team, providing feedback and expert advice regarding the design of the ResiLoop product stewardship scheme.
We welcome representatives from the following areas to register interest in joining the Group:
Register now by completing the following online form: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/N7DCBXC
Registrants must be willing to commit time, expertise and data (where relevant) to the process and provide constructive, solution-oriented input when requested. The SRG is expected to meet three times and may be asked to provide feedback by email circulation between key project meetings.
