Why is industrial demolition necessary?
Industrial demolition becomes necessary to demolish old and structurally decaying buildings, which pose a potential risk for workers. On the other hand, installing a new plant in the place of an existing but abandoned factory requires demolition. However, the easier it may sound to adopt demolition to eliminate a building, the harsher its effect on the environment.
The importance of a sustainable approach in demolition work across the UK
In 2022, 53.9 million tonnes of waste had been generated through construction and demolition work in England. It is a clear sign that demolition impacts the environment at a significant level. Hence, the adoption of sustainable practices has become necessary.
How do you become more sustainable in demolition?
To be more sustainable in demolition, you must adopt the recycling approach. It involves demolishing buildings while keeping in mind to reuse demolished materials. This way, you need fewer new resources, so less environmental impact.
