Construction Waste

CLEMANCE & The Tees Valley Green Business Network Joint Meeting

The University of Teesside, Centre for Enterprise, Victoria Road, Middlesbrough, TS1 3BA

Construction Waste – The Whole Picture

Construction and demolition waste is the single largest UK waste stream and can account for up to 5% of a project’s value. The construction industry is paying an estimated £200 million per year in landfill tax, which will rise with further tax increases. Currently around 25million tonnes per annum of construction waste are sent to landfill in England - there is a national target to halve this by 2012.This meeting will address the current legislative position and offer potential solutions.
