About the crQlr awards

Launched in 2021 and now in its fourth year, the crQlr Awards aim to promote ‘circular design’, which is essential for the realization of a circular economy. Launched as the Japan’s first awards in the field of ‘circular design’, the crQlr Awards is gathering projects from Japan and abroad, drawing on practical know-how from industry and creativity from a wide range of disciplines.

In 2023, the number of participating countries reached a record high, with 140 projects from 43 countries from all over the world. The 28 selected winning projects were awarded a ‘crQlr’ certification kit to publicize and promote their circular economy initiatives.

In addition, the ‘crQlr Summit 2024 TOKYO’ featured cross-talk sessions with the winners and jury members, and the ‘crQlr Awards Exhibition’ showcased the winning projects at FabCafes across Japan and abroad (Bangkok, Barcelona, Tokyo, Kyoto, and Nagoya). The program also included an exhibition tour and a limited-edition FabCafe menu inspired by the winning projects, bringing circular design closer to the public.
