New recycling yard proposed for Waingaro Quarry

As part of our expansion proposal, we’re making plans to establish a new construction material recycling function within the quarry site.

The material recycling yard will support the local construction industry and contractors to reduce the amount of waste going to landfill and promote more sustainable, low-cost construction material options.

Construction waste like concrete, milled asphalt, sand, topsoil, clay and rock from construction sites could be recycled and repurposed.

The yard will use machinery like loaders, excavators and a mobile crusher. Under cover storage for 2,000 tonne of processed products like crushed concrete and millings will be required.
