Did you know this planter is made up of 50% waste? ♻️ 🌱 A huge congratulations to Michal Hohlfeld from the Green Building Council South Africa (GBCSA) for guessing (or calculating) the correct composition at the convention and for winning this unique, water-wise planter! At Zero Waste Technologies, we specialize in transforming waste into valuable resources and products. In this case, builder's rubble was repurposed into durable concrete products - planters being just one example of the many possibilities. #WasteToResource #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #ZeroWaste #GreenBuilding #CircularProductDevelopment

Did you know that whenever possible recovered aggregate from demolition, road construction and other infrastructure projects can—and should—be reused as recycled aggregate? Instead of being disposed of in landfills, these waste materials are crushed, screened, and processed to create aggregates that can be used in various construction applications. Recycled aggregates play a significant role in sustainable construction practices by promoting resource conservation, reducing waste generation, and minimizing the environmental impact of construction activities. #recycledaggregate #recycledconstruction #environment #reducingwaste #environmentalimpacts

🌍 #WorldCleanupDay2024 🌱 A reminder that the protection of the environment is a shared responsibility! This day showed many initiatives that take action, clean up multiple pieces of litter around the world and promote sustainable practices. ♻ But the problem goes beyond just one day and beyond disposable waste! 🏢 The construction sector is responsible for around 37% of waste accross Europe, making it the main waste source in the Union. The real estate industry need to explore ways to reduce and recycle waste, and to shift towards a more circular economy. 🗒 In this regard, the EU produced a Construction and Demolition Waste Protocol in 2016, giving guidelines for industry practitioners as well as public authorities. 👉 More on the subject : https://lnkd.in/gHddFaJN #Waste #ConstructionandDemolition #CircularEconomy

At Lovell we are committed to reducing our environmental impact and enhancing social value. One of the key aspects of this commitment is reducing the amount of waste generated by our construction activities and sending less waste to landfill. To celebrate #ZeroWasteWeek we spotlight how Lovell has achieved a 35% reduction in waste intensity and a overall 99% landfill diversion rate in 2023, this is a increase of 2.85% from 2019. This means that Lovell has generated less waste per unit of output and sent less waste to landfill, exceeding the Construction 2025 target of 50% waste to landfill reduction by 2024, compared to 2008 levels.
