\r\n Zero waste on the construction site: EU calls for a rethink <\/h1>\r\n
\r\n

In April 2024, representatives from Holcim, Wienerberger, Erste Bank, Goldbeck, Saint Gobain, Saubermacher and many more discussed the challenges and opportunities of the new ESG requirements. There was unanimous agreement that digitalisation is the key to meeting the EU requirements efficiently and comprehensibly.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/div>\r\n

The new EU taxonomy requires circular construction. Why the waste management industry is currently challenged – and how digital platforms such as Wastebox.biz contribute to implementation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

EU taxonomy hits the construction industry: recycling rates rise, as do requirements<\/h2>\n

With the Green Deal, the new EU taxonomy, the Supply Chain Act and mandatory CSRD reporting, the construction industry is facing huge change. Particularly relevant: From 2024, construction companies will have to make their environmental impact transparent – including waste generation, recycling rates and recycled materials used. At the same time, specific recycling targets now apply for the first time: 90% of non-hazardous construction waste in new buildings must be reused or recycled – for refurbishments, the figure is 70%. In addition, minimum quotas apply for secondary raw materials (e.g. 30 % for concrete\/bricks, 20 % for timber construction materials). Without digital, complete material and waste documentation, this is almost impossible to manage – especially for companies with many active construction sites.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Digitalisation as the key to the circular economy<\/h2>\n

However, the circular economy does not work without functioning waste streams, reliable data and partnership-based collaboration – from dismantling to recycling. This is exactly where wastebox.biz comes in: With automated ESG documentation, real-time dashboards, CO\u2082-optimised logistics and a strong network of disposal partners, the platform supports construction companies on their way to a zero-waste construction site. Hans Roth, founder of Saubermacher, puts it in a nutshell: “Our vision of zero waste is very important, but a circular economy is only possible together with the industry. To achieve this, we need to reinvent ourselves as a waste management company in the future.” A digital waste disposal solution such as Wastebox.biz makes a significant contribution to this – simple, reliable and legally compliant.<\/p>\n
