Recycling

C Jackson & Sons are committed to protecting the environment by promoting the highest standards of environmental management in the performance of its activities

Concrete Crushing

Masonry and concrete arising from demolition operations is recycled by crushing on or off site. The resulting material is then suitable for use in construction as an alternative to new aggregates.
On-site crushing offers a range of benefits, from environmental, to logistical and financial advantages. Crushing on-site reduces pollution by cutting traffic movements to and from the site. It also keeps masonry and concrete material out of the waste stream.

Reclamation

Salvageable building materials from our own demolition works are graded, cleaned and stacked on pallets for resale at our reclamation yard in Thurleigh.
