The Construction Commitments:Halving Waste to Landfill
“We commit to playing our part in halving the amount of construction, demolition and excavation waste going to landfill by 2012. We will work to adopt and implement standards for good practice in reducing waste, recycling more, and increasing the use of recycled and recovered materials.”

Clients & contractors
“You will:
set a target for reducing waste to landfill;
embed the target within corporate policy and
processes;
set corresponding requirements in project
procurement and engage with our supply chain;
measure performance at a project level relative to a
corporate baseline; and
report annually on overall corporate performance.”
Designers & Consultants
“You will:
create design solutions that minimise waste and use
resources efficiently;
identify for clients and contractors the best opportunities
to reduce waste and use more recovered material;
measure the potential improvement at project level;
support our teams in broadening their knowledge of
resource efficient design; and
report annually on overall corporate performance.”
Manufacturers & Suppliers
“You will:
set a target for reducing waste and/or using more recycled
materials in your processes, products and packaging;
set a target for reducing packaging and packaging waste;
work with your customers and suppliers to help them
reduce their waste and reuse and recycle more materials;
measure performance against these targets relative to a
corporate baseline; and
report annually on overall corporate performance”
Waste Management Contractors
“You will:
set a target for recovering more materials from the waste
stream;
work with your customers to increase the quantity and
quality of materials recovered;
work with your customers to provide effective
measurement and reporting systems;
measure performance against your targets relative to a
corporate baseline; and
report annually on corporate performance.”

Case study
Case StudyThe client is a Commercial Developer who is developing an out of town commercial office block in the north-west of England. The offices will be a low-rise, 5 storey development of 10,000m² space at a build cost of £15 million (with parking for 30 cars).
The scheme will be let on a two-stage traditional basis. It is fast approaching Stage C sign-off, (with the contractor ‘ABC Builders’ appointed under Stage 1), and the Architect, SuperDesign Partnership, pushing for a green building. A demolition and site clearance contract will be placed by the principal contractor.
The Client made a commitment to Halving Waste to Landfill recently but is uncertain what this means and how to go about it. They are an experienced developer but have been relatively backward in their green agenda. They see this project as a test case for practical implementation of their commitment.
The chosen contractor has had some experience in waste reduction, waste recovery and the use of reclaimed materials, though this experience is not extensive. They have a good working relationship with their preferred Waste Management Contractor, and believe they are compliant with the recent SWMP Regulation.
The scheme will include the demolition of an old 1960’s block on the site, and there is uncertainty over what is in the ground.
