Construction Industry Recycling Management & Balers
As profit margins in the construction industry continue to fluctuate, construction and building companies need to think more carefully about the line items in their control.
Waste balers for construction waste and recycling management can reduce the environmental impact of construction projects and cut the ever growing cost of landfill fees. Even better, construction companies with high volumes of cardboard and plastic recycling waste can even create new income streams.
LSM UK helps customers working in construction across the UK to find the right waste baling solution for their company.

Why Choose Recycling Balers for Construction Waste
The construction industry produced an estimated 60 million tonnes of construction and demolition waste in 2016 alone. While construction companies now recover 90% of heavy CDW waste, the remaining 10% ends up in the landfill. Much of that waste is plastic: the construction industry uses 23% of all of the UK’s plastic.
As material costs fluctuate and labour shortages flourish, construction companies have less room to afford any type of waste, including landfill waste. Inefficient waste management practices on a construction site can lead to:
- Skyrocketing project costs
- Inefficient budgeting and estimate practices
- Trip and fall hazards on construction sites
- Negative impacts on local and regional environment
- Lost opportunities for competitiveness
