With landfill sites in the UK reaching capacity, and to safeguard the future of our environment, it is imperative that as an organisation we take responsibility and ensure that as much of our waste as possible is reused or recycled.
We are pleased to report that in 2018 we reduced the volume of construction waste to landfill by 58.33% and we don’t intend to stop there, we are committed to continue our efforts to further reduce the amount of construction, demolition and excavation waste that goes to landfill through 2019 and beyond, by implementing the following:
- Emphasise source reduction by reducing the total amount of waste generated
- Reuse all materials where possible
- Remove waste streams entirely
- Identify new suppliers to divert remaining waste streams from a landfill whom typically deploy a combination of recycling, re-use, composting and incineration (with energy recovery).
- Encourage offsite fabrication
We look forward to updating you on our progress in the coming months.
