After the booming years, unfortunately, the period of lean years has returned for the domestic construction industry, with fewer orders, investments, and constructions. But what can and must the most educated, professional, and ambitious players in the sector do to successfully navigate the tougher years and ensure that, when the next period of growth arrives, they are not struggling but are stronger and ready at the starting line? Efficiency in all aspects! But how?

Let’s Open Your Eyes! – Opportunities for Recycling Construction and Demolition Waste
Structures are enormous material reservoirs, with their components becoming available again upon demolition. However, in most cases, extracted raw materials are repurposed as filler in road construction projects. Actual recycling happens only to a small extent, resulting in very weak circularity and a continued high demand for primary materials. The presentation will review the factors hindering the recycling and market placement of secondary materials derived from construction and demolition waste, as well as examine the recycling potential of different fractions.
Speaker: Prof. Dr. Anita Boros, Head of the Analysis Centre, Centre for Circular Economy Analysis and Knowledge founded by Hungarian University of Agricultural and Life Sciences (MATE)
