Waste Management & Recycling

Closing the Loop on Construction Waste

At Demvex, we're committed to circular construction principles. We handle every aspect of waste management — from site clearance and collection through to sorting and recycling — turning demolition materials into valuable, reusable resources for future projects.

Our waste management services are designed to maximise material recovery whilst minimising environmental impact. We maintain partnerships with specialist recycling facilities and salvage yards, ensuring materials find new life rather than ending up in landfill.

Every project begins with a waste management plan that identifies opportunities for material recovery, reuse, and recycling. This proactive approach helps clients meet sustainability targets whilst often reducing overall project costs.

Materials We Recover:

  • Bricks, blocks, and masonry

  • Timber and wooden fixtures

  • Metals (ferrous and non-ferrous)

  • Concrete and aggregates

  • Tiles, sanitaryware, and fittings

  • Doors, windows, and architectural features

  • Electrical and plumbing materials

Comprehensive waste transfer notes and recycling certificates

Our waste management expertise helps projects achieve BREEAM credits and demonstrate environmental credentials. We provide detailed reporting on waste diversion rates and environmental impact, supporting your sustainability communications.

By maintaining strong relationships with recycling facilities, architectural salvage yards, and material processors, we ensure recovered materials find appropriate new uses — from crushed concrete becoming aggregate to salvaged fixtures finding new homes.

Turning Waste into Worth

Sustainability drives everything we do. We're proud to lead the shift toward circular construction — dismantling, refurbishing, and rebuilding responsibly to create a better built environment for future generations.

From comprehensive waste recycling to renewable energy installations, our projects are designed to reduce carbon emissions, extend building life, and demonstrate that construction can be both profitable and environmentally responsible.

We don't see sustainability as a constraint — we see it as an opportunity to innovate, to improve practices, and to deliver better outcomes for our clients and our planet. Every project is a chance to prove that high-quality construction and environmental stewardship go hand in hand.

Our commitment extends beyond individual projects. We continuously invest in training, equipment, and partnerships that enhance our environmental performance.

We share knowledge with clients, supply chain partners, and industry peers to raise standards across the construction sector. With Demvex, sustainability isn't an afterthought or a marketing message — it's built into every decision, every process, and every project we deliver.

All equipment undergoes regular maintenance and safety inspections, with full LOLER certification and operator training available. Our fleet features the latest low-emission engines and efficient hydraulic systems, reducing fuel consumption and minimising environmental impact on your site.
