Recycling services for the construction industry
With construction and demolition materials accounting for almost 25% of all materials sent to landfill in Scotland (a massive 2.2 million tonnes), it's vital that the industry looks at ways to improve these statistics.
Scottish Water Waste Services can help. We offer a local solution to dispose of organic waste materials, for example:
Deerdykes Composting & Organics Recycling Facility, June 2006
- When clearing a new build site we can process any grass cuttings, branches and wood materials at Deerdykes Composting & Organics Recycling Facility rather than disposing of, or sending it to landfill.
- Throughout the development of your projects, we can process any non-treated wood materials including pallets or off cuts and compost these materials.
Working with us decreases your disposal and haulage costs as well as benefiting the environment, but also maximises your marketing opportunities.
Because Pod is a highly respected green product, using it emphasises your green credentials - letting your actions do the talking. You are sending out a clear message about your environmental and sustainable practices to both potential customers and in your company's environmental reports.
If you would like further information about the services we offer or to discuss the price, availability and delivery of Pod, please call Kristine Leitch on 01236 875415 or email us at compost@scottishwaterhorizons.co.uk
