Ask for circular demolition in Berkel

Ask for circular demolition in Berkel In Berkel en Rodenrijs, ask Mustang for a circular demolition that reuses greenhouse glass and steel. The firm keeps a yard on Noordeindseweg where those parts are checked, cleaned, and stored for a second build. What you can do in Berkel - Ask Mustang to list what is in a greenhouse before anyone cuts it down (Mustang circular demolition) - Ask which glass, gutters, and steel can go into another greenhouse - Ask how parts move from the site to the yard, and what is cleaned there - If a part cannot be used again, ask how it will be handled - Read the contact page and ask them to walk the site with you How to join Mustang is a company, not a volunteer club. You contact them when a greenhouse or a building needs to come down. They start with a list of materials and a report of what still has value. Then they take the reusable parts off, move them to the yard at Noordeindseweg 346A, and check them. Most parts later go into another greenhouse. Partners named on the page are Kerklaan Greenhouses and Kerklaan Horti Materials. The page does not say the yard is a walk-in shop. Ask before you visit. Why it matters in Berkel Glasshouse country is full of frames that still have years in them. A careful take-down keeps that glass and steel in the district instead of ordering a full new kit. You also get a plain list of what is worth keeping before the machines arrive. Find more community projects in Berkel en Rodenrijs. Good to know - What does circular demolition mean here? Mustang describes it as taking a greenhouse or a building apart so the materials are used again at a high quality. They also take away the parts that cannot have a second life. - Where is the yard?

Find circular demolition salvage in Breda

Find circular demolition salvage in Breda In Breda, you can follow a circular demolition that saved concrete, steel, and bricks from a 23,000 square metre hall at Prinsenhil. The parts came off the old building in a way that lets a new hall, a path, or a home renovation use them again. What you can do in Breda - Read how the hall at Prinsenhil was taken apart, then ask a builder to copy those steps (WDP circular demolition story) - Look for salvaged beams, roof panels, insulation, clinker, and steel from this kind of job - Ask for the old concrete floor to stay on site as a new base or a site road - Ask the city to write selective taking-apart into the next demolition tender - If you renovate, ask for used parts before you order new ones How to join This is a company practice, not an open workshop. WDP and the demolition firm Gubbels described the job in February 2023. The first phase was about 90 percent done. A new building on that part was expected by the end of that year. A second taking-apart was due in early 2024, with a new building later that year. Each taking-apart was expected to last eight to nine weeks. Do not walk onto a live site. Check the WDP page for what the firms say now about salvage sales. Why it matters in Breda A neighbour who renovates can use a beam or a brick that already exists. On this job the concrete floor stayed on the ground as a base and as a road, so it did not have to leave by truck. Stone was planned for green noise walls along walking and training paths, which gives plants and birds a place beside the path. Find more community projects in Breda. Good to know - What is circular demolition in Breda? Crews unscrew and sort the hall so materials stay useful. The old habit was to smash everything. This way takes more time, and a crew sometimes needs to learn the new steps. - Can I buy the old parts? Gubbels sold most parts to people who renovate. Regular buyers saw the list first. Leftovers were offered on Marktplaats.

Visit circular demolition salvage at Prinsenhil

Visit circular demolition salvage at Prinsenhil You can trace circular demolition at Prinsenhil in Breda, where a large hall was taken apart for reuse. Look along the Prinsenhil road.

Do not enter a works compound - If you renovate, ask whether beams, roof panels, clinker, or steel from this kind of job are still for sale - Ask a local builder to keep the next concrete floor on site as a base or a site road How to join WDP and Gubbels ran this as a build project.

Mission Reuse: shared reusable cups for carnival in Noord-Brabant

Carnival cups that come back Mission Reuse, a coalition coordinated by Fair Resource Foundation, built a shared knowledge network with Noord-Brabant province to facilitate reusable cup systems during carnival: one of the highest-waste events in the Dutch calendar. The network connects municipalities, carnival associations, and cup-washing services, so every participating town can access a shared reuse infrastructure rather than buying into it individually. Where - Noord-Brabant province, Netherlands (carnival route municipalities); approximate pin at regional centre How to participate - Carnival associations in Noord-Brabant: contact Fair Resource Foundation to join the Mission Reuse network and access the shared cup logistics - Municipalities: ask your carnival organising committee whether they are connected to the Mission Reuse knowledge network - Visitors to carnival: return your reusable cup at designated collection points Source & repost Shared here so you can get inspired or find action already happening near you. Solarpunker does not own or organise it. - Lead: Fair Resource Foundation + Mission Reuse coalition - Report chapter: ZWE State of Zero Waste Municipalities, 5th edition
