Industrial Dismantling Contractors

A sustainable industrial dismantling service involves carefully decommissioning and dismantling industrial machinery to minimise waste and limit environmental impact. If you are a factory owner looking to redesign your factory by decommissioning some old machinery, you should know the strip-down process.

Understanding Industrial Dismantling

Industrial dismantling involves systematically disassembling obsolete factories or industrial sites. Rather than indiscriminately demolishing structures, we precisely remove machinery, equipment, and building elements for reuse or recycling.
Our goal: recover valuable materials for recycling or resale, safely extract hazardous substances, and prepare the site for new use. This approach is essential when a facility closes, relocates, or undergoes redevelopment.

Demolition vs. Dismantling – What’s the Difference?

  • Demolition rapidly brings down buildings or structures using heavy machinery or explosives. The focus is on swift site clearance, with limited material recycling.
  • Dismantling requires methodically disassembling machinery, equipment, or building components for reuse, resale, or recycling. This demands skilled professionals and specialised tools.
We utilise modern tools, including high-reach shears, hydraulic cutters, and lifting systems, to dismantle sites safely and protect items that can be reused.

Advantages of Industrial Dismantling

  • Environmental Benefits
    • Safe removal of hazardous materials, including asbestos, oils, and chemical residues.
    • Recycling of metals, machinery, and electronic components reduces landfill waste and reliance on raw material extraction.
  • Cost Efficiency and Resource Recovery
    • Salvaging valuable materials can offset dismantling costs and generate additional income. Recycling valuable materials helps offset the cost of dismantling and can even generate extra income.
  • Safety and Risk Management
    • Older sites can be risky due to weak structures or the presence of hazardous materials.
    • Our teams are trained to follow strict safety steps to protect workers, local people, and the environment.
  • Readiness for Redevelopment
    • After dismantling, the site is cleared and ready for new commercial, residential, or industrial projects, creating opportunities for regeneration, boosting local economies, and increasing land value.

Importance of sustainable approach for industrial dismantling

A key reason for industrial dismantling is to lower environmental impact. By carefully removing machinery parts and infrastructure, we can reuse them for new projects. This approach cuts down on waste, supports sustainability, and saves money.

Industrial demolition typically involves dismantling buildings without much consideration for salvaging reusable parts. Dismantling services, on the other hand, aim to reduce, reuse, and recycle. We sort out rubbish, unused machines, and scrap metal so they can be recycled or used in other projects. Choosing dismantling services helps your business be more environmentally friendly and adds value.

The process of industrial dismantling using machines and advanced techniques

At DCL, we begin each dismantling project by surveying the site and identifying any risks. Our team checks for hazardous materials like asbestos and plans for safe removal. We use modern equipment and technology to keep the process efficient. For industrial and factory dismantling, we rely on remote-controlled excavators, hydraulic shears or crackers, controlled explosions, and both cold and hot cutting methods.
The cold-cutting process is more beneficial than the hot-cutting system. It is more valuable when used in a hazardous environment. Cold-cutting techniques can be used in oil refineries and environments with flammable elements, as they do not produce sparks and flames. Conversely, an industrial dismantling service that uses a hot-cutting technique may waste a significant portion of the material. However, the process is fast, making the dismantling process quick.
We utilise remote-controlled excavators to expedite dismantling and enhance safety by minimising manual labour. Hydraulic shears cut through metals like iron, steel, and aluminum, making decommissioning faster. At Demolition Contractors London, our team utilises advanced tools and methods to deliver efficient and sustainable industrial dismantling services.

Why is the Eddy Current Separator necessary for industrial dismantling?

-

The Eddy Current Separator is an excellent tool for demolition sites. After the dismantling service, the site becomes full of scrap metals, concrete, and plastic particles. It becomes difficult to remove each material separately to preserve the environment. However, an Eddy Current Separator does a fine job separating ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It uses a conveyor belt to pass a mixture of ferrous and non-ferrous particles through a magnetic field at the end of the conveyor belt. The magnetic field deflects non-ferrous particles into a separate place, separating the two types of particles and recycling them accordingly. The machine can be used after the dismantling process is over.
