Every day we continue to extract our fast-depleting natural resources to support rapid urbanisation and modern lifestyles. A circular approach is the only answer to equip us with the resources needed to supply a sector charged with a key economic role while addressing our collective environmental footprint. By recovering and recycling sand and aggregates from construction, demolition and excavation waste, these materials can be given a second life and once again returned to the market, while diverting millions of tonnes of waste from landfill. Eunan Kelly, Head of Business Development for North &West Europe at CDE, will explain how and why highly innovative wet processing technologies can deliver in-spec material free of contaminants as good as raw material and perfectly suited to high value construction projects.
