In late 2016, Hereford Quarries commissioned a bespoke state of the art wash plant facility. This is capable of washing and grading a range of premium recycled sands, single size drainage stone – which compliments the existing offerings of the ever popular 6F5 crushed concrete – brick and Type 1. This has enabled the quarry to reach a 99% recycling rate with construction and demolition waste, and this will ultimately divert many thousands of tonnes destined for landfill.
The below video demonstrates how this facility enables us to recycle waste material from a construction site, producing clean product suitable for use in construction on that same site.
