Recycled Concrete Aggregates Milton Keynes
August 31st, 2010
An inevitable by – product of any construction project is waste. Skips full of surplus materials are common on construction sites and unfortunately much of such waste cannot be recycled (such as certain chemical wastes). Concrete however is not one of these materials. Here at Smith Constructions, we can provide high quality recycled aggregates Milton Keynes and the wider areas, using our centrally based Waste Treatment and Recycling Station. Utilising innovative crushing and screening technology, we transform useless chunks of discarded concrete into reasonably priced useable aggregate ideally suited for countless practical applications.
Between 2003 and 2006, the production of recycled aggregates in England, some of which were concrete based, increased by 3.1%. Furthermore, of the 275 million tonnes of aggregate used in the UK per year, approximately 70 million tonnes are recycled materials. This demonstrates the visible trend in the industry toward sustainable construction processes and environmental preservation.
If your business hasn’t considered recycled concrete aggregate, now might be the time to come alongside competitors already innovating in this way. Rather than purchasing expensive virgin aggregates for your next project, why not consider recycled concrete from the team here at Smiths Construction? We work consistently hard to ensure that materials are of premium quality and facilitate a high standard of work.
Recycled concrete aggregate has a myriad of commercial and industrial uses, such as in base foundations for roads, as part of another concrete mix, for pipe bedding, in capping applications and in bitumen bound materials of varying kinds.
We can provide recycled aggregates both from materials previously used in the construction industry or from secondary sources and industries. Here at Smith’s Construction, we’ve been trading for over 16 years, meaning that we’re happy and able to offer comprehensive services and advice in the area of aggregates Milton Keynes.
