The circular economy is a central concept in sustainable construction, emphasizing the reduction of waste and the reuse of resources. A prime example of this approach is the utilization of reclaimed foam insulation materials, such as polyisocyanurate (polyiso), expanded polystyrene (EPS), and extruded polystyrene (XPS). At Green Insulation, we are committed to advancing sustainable building practices by offering high-quality, reclaimed rigid foam board insulation. Contact us to discover how reclaimed insulation can enhance your next project.

🏢 Ever wondered what happens to waste from the construction and demolition of buildings? Well more than 75% of it ends up in landfills. This waste includes wood, drywall, asphalt shingles, bricks and clay tiles. So what can be done to make construction more sustainable? Sustainable construction focuses on using less energy, water and materials to generate less waste and carbon emissions. At Geocycle, we provide the expertise to recycle raw materials into low-carbon building materials, while diverting waste from landfills. In 2023, we turned 14 million tons of waste into alternative raw materials and fuels, reducing the consumption of natural resources and decarbonizing the production of construction materials.

“From Plaster to Soil: Turning Construction Waste into Future Growth 🌱🏡” “Construction doesn’t have to mean waste. Leftover material from my earthen plaster job is now helping build healthy soil for tomato plants—even in winter! ❄️🌱 Using truly sustainable materials means we can rethink the lifecycle of buildings. Instead of sending debris to landfills, we can create assets for future generations—turning what was once waste into a resource for life. It’s time to explore how natural building can contribute to a circular, regenerative future. What would you do with construction scraps like this? Let’s innovate together! 🌍 #Sustainability #NaturalBuilding #CircularEconomy #GreenBuilding #HealthySoils #earthenplaster

The Green Formwork™ concept represents an environmentally conscious building method and technology that optimally utilizes Earth's natural resources. A key feature of Green Formwork™ is the use of bamboo plywood,crafted from renewable resources,particularly bamboo,recognized as an ecologically sustainable construction material due to its cltivation through extensive agro-replanting, eliminating the need for tree cutting and minimizing environmental impact. The primary steel components stripping head, are casted from recycled steel resources. All components are meticulously designed and manufactured for multiple cycles of reuse,surpassing the longevity of traditional timbers method. Implementing Green Formwork system™ in a project leads to a significant reduction in on-stie debris and waste generation, resulting in substantial cost savings associated with waste disposal. #GreenFormwork #slabformwork #concreteshoring #environmentdesign #concreteformwork #masonry #soffits #posttensioning

Construction generates a lot of waste, but by recycling materials like concrete, wood, and steel, we can significantly reduce the environmental impact of building projects. ♻️ How do you manage construction waste on your sites? #ConstructionWaste #Recycling #SustainableConstruction

🏗️Considering how to reduce your carbon footprint in construction projects? 🌍Low-carbon materials and products can play a key role in helping the construction industry address the climate emergency. 👉One way to reduce the carbon footprint of a construction project is to use local products and materials that are created via low environmental impact processes. ♻️We produce low carbon large concrete blocks and interconnecting blocks using quality recycled aggregate via our CDE wash plant. 👷We also produce high quality recycled aggregate and recycled sand. This is done by taking C&D waste destined for landfill and recycling it into fresh high-quality material. 🙏Our circular driven economy approach and low-carbon solutions reduces the strain on natural resources, landfill, the overall environment and helps reduce the carbon cost of construction projects.

Have you checked out our latest blog post? 🚧 Construction projects come with their own set of challenges, particularly in ensuring public safety and minimising disruption. One often overlooked issue is noise pollution. That's where steel hoarding comes in—a solution that not only secures the site but also helps reduce noise. Curious about how steel hoarding aids in noise mitigation and why it should be on your radar for future projects? Watch our VLOG for a quick summary of the key points, or click the link below to get all the details! ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/e4UJPeRU #SteelHoarding #Reusable #Rethync #SiteHoarding #Housebuilders #Reuse #Recycle #Reduce #Sustainable #Construction #Environment #UrbanDevelopment #NoiseMitigation #SustainableConstruction

🌍🏗️ The construction industry is a major contributor to waste in the UK, generating a staggering 62% of total waste and accounting for 32% of all landfill materials. It's time to rethink our approach to building practices! ·                    Shouldn't every new build incorporate an end-of-life strategy for disassembly? By prioritising reuse and disassembly, we can significantly reduce the waste that ends up in landfills. ·                    At Seismic, we believe in a greener future, and our platform supports an impressive 90% reuse of components. We're committed to promoting sustainable practices within the industry, and the great news is that our platform is open for anyone to use! ·                    Ready to elevate your construction projects and make a positive impact on the environment?
