Building across Britain

With over 60 facilities across the UK and extensive road, rail and sea logistical routes, we’re always close by. As the leader in sustainable materials, we can ensure a steady supply of the materials you need, and fast and local disposal of the materials you don’t need.

Plus, with our local and carefully managed storage facilities, the materials you need will always be with you when you need them.

Keeping it local

With a large number of sites across the UK, we will always be close to your projects, giving you a quick and convenient service. Our locality also means we can join you in helping to grow local economies through recruitment and charitable giving.

As a family business, we understand the importance of investing in, and supporting the communities in which we are based. As well as partnering with local charities and community groups, we also employ local people, with local knowledge. In 2022, 54% of our colleagues lived within 15 miles of their EMR site.

Consultancy and support

We understand the importance of balancing construction projects' needs with sustainable practices and regulatory compliance. Our team of experts is dedicated to guiding construction firms towards environmentally responsible solutions that minimise impact while maximising efficiency and cost effectiveness.

Recycling reports and insights

We can provide you with regular recycling reports and insights that provide a clear overview of your construction firm's CO2 impact. Our detailed reports help you track the amount of waste recycled and greenhouse gas emissions reduced, showcasing your commitment to sustainability.

Social value contributions

Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond the environment, we also want to build sustainable futures for the communities we work in. We make a positive impact through social change – from helping people to access resources, healthcare and education, to helping local environmental projects and donating to causes in need. We care about our communities and through our charitable giving in 2022, we have achieved £19,635,041* in social value.

We can boost your social value contributions by donating the value of your unwanted materials directly to the charity of your choice. We manage the entire process. Without changing a thing, you’ll provide much-needed support for the causes and communities your people care about. And you’ll show your customers that you care about the same things as they do.
