Recycled Aggregates

What are Recycled Aggregates?

Construction and demolition waste is one of Ireland’s largest waste streams and the ability to re-use material from sites can assist in reducing the carbon footprint of projects. Recycled aggregates include soil and stone, concrete, bricks and ceramics. Material that meets the criteria can be re-used as general fill, road construction, railway ballast and other non-structural uses.


Why Test Recycled Aggregates?

Recycled aggregate testing provides confidence that recovered construction and demolition materials meet EPA environmental quality requirements and are suitable for safe re-use in a range of non-structural construction applications.
