Smart2ReDuCe is a project we are working on at our Technological Centre to contribute to the Circular Economy and the decarbonisation of the sector, converting waste into new sustainable materials for construction. The construction and operation of buildings accounts for almost 40% of the depletion of natural resources and generates 25% of the world's waste. Construction and Demolition Waste (C&DW) has become one of the main...
