Cemex has inaugurated its new construction, demolition, and excavation waste recycling facility, located in Tel Aviv, Israel. To mark the commencement of operations at the facility, the site was visited by a group of senior representatives from the Cemex EMEA management team.
This site will play an important role in the growth of Cemex’s circularity efforts, under the banner of its new Regenera business. It will eventually receive up 500,000 tonnes of building waste per year. This material will then be processed and used, where appropriate, in recycled building materials.
The main suppliers of material for this location are anticipated to be companies engaged in demolition of existing buildings and companies that transport construction waste, while customers for recycled materials in Israel include concrete companies, flooring contractors and infrastructure companies. The facility was acquired earlier this year as part of Cemex’s purchase of a 51% stake in Israel-based SHTANG Recycle LTD.
