Turning Construction Waste into Opportunity
Powerday Featured in Construction UK Magazine, January 2026 – Page 46.
We were delighted to be featured in January issue of Construction UK Magazine, exploring the opportunity in construction waste management.
The article explains how the UK construction sector is beginning to treat waste not as a burden, but as a valuable resource, driven by rising material costs, environmental pressure, and new policy frameworks.
A major focus is on innovation in waste processing. Advances in sorting, recycling, and treatment technologies are allowing materials such as plastics, timber, aggregates, and even contaminated waste to be recovered and reused more effectively.
The article includes insights from John O’Dwyer, Associate Director of Environmental Sustainability at Powerday, who shares his perspective on how the industry can unlock value from waste and how emerging technologies hold considerable promise.
