Reducing construction, demolition and excavation waste in Wales

More than half of all waste generated in Wales comes from the construction industry. Each year the sector sends an estimated 900,000 tonnes to landfill and spends around £90 million on materials that will ultimately be wasted.  

WRAP has developed a suite of tools and guidance to help you reduce your waste to landfill, thereby saving you money.
