Working group on Recyclable Materials concludes its course

The beginning of 2024 brought with itself the last meeting of the Working Group on recyclable materials.

The online gathering took place on January 16th. As was the case throughout the whole cycle of the group, it counted on high participation, with this last meeting gathering almost 20 attendees. Among them were the EDA members, as well as the European Aggregates Association, UEPG.

The scope and diversity of the group allowed its members to exchange their knowledge and ideas. Thus, it is a greatly enriching experience, as well as resulting projects.

We’d like to take the chance to thank all of the collaborators and, in particular, Mr Marting Car, the Managing Director of BRV, who took the role of Technical Coordinator of the group. Your initiative, disposition and knowledge are what make projects like this possible.

The work doesn’t stop here

The publication resulting from this working group, Guide about Recyclable C&D Materials – Mineral Fraction, will be released in Spring 2024. It will also be distributed during the EDA Annual Convention 2024.

However, our work doesn’t stop there. In line with our commitment to the circular economy, the EDA intends for this working group to carry on other projects. Among them are other guides related to recyclable materials, events and, in particular, the Circular Economy in Construction Awards. 

By organizing such initiatives and making them known, we would like to raise awareness of the different problems and possible solutions in regards to that topic.
