Working according to the Tracimat Demolition Management System

We take our environmental responsibility seriously. That is why we strictly follow the Tracimat demolition management system. This means we work with the demolition follow-up plan which discusses and inventories all hazardous waste substances and other waste streams in detail. As an affiliated party with Tracimat, we ensure transparency and traceability of waste materials and subject ourselves to independent controls during demolition. This guarantees a safe and environmentally responsible demolition.

Dismantling Works

Our dismantling works are a precise and controlled process, carried out by specialized teams with deep experience and know-how. We approach the dismantling down to the basic structure, with careful attention to stability studies and the execution of shoring works.

An essential part of our work is the focus on reuse and the high-quality recycling of demolition materials.

Circularity in Demolition Works

In our demolition projects, circularity is central; we work according to the principles of the Ladder of Lansink. We focus on maximizing the reuse of materials.

Bricks, glass walls, computer floors, natural stone, and other high-quality finishing materials are carefully assessed for reuse potential. In recycling, for example, we transform roofing into high-quality secondary raw materials and convert concrete into aggregates for new construction purposes.

Challenging demolition of an apartment building in Lille

In cooperation with our sister company Helfaut Travaux, we recently successfully completed a challenging demolition of an apartment building in Lille. The complexity of this project did not lie so much in the great height of the building, but in the proximity of a busy street that had to remain open to traffic during the work.
