Developed by Fairview to help solve the environmental impacts of rectification works. The Ecoloop process promises to divert 100% of non-compliant cladding waste from rectification projects from landfill, recycling the waste and giving new life to the resources recovered as they are repurposed into new products, reducing virgin material consumption, and contributing to the circular economy.
Ecoloop, has been verified by to comply with Green Building Council of Australia’s (GBCA) Construction and Demolition Waste Reporting Criteria.
The GBCA’s Construction and Demolition Waste Reporting Criteria allows waste contractors and waste processing facilities to be verified by an independent auditor for compliance with minimum standards of reporting. This is a critical step in ensuring not only transparency in the industry but also customer confidence regarding the recycling of waste.
With Ecoloop, you can expect
Firstly, Fairview trucks pick up the panels after delivering new product, creating a backload service to minimise carbon footprint.
The panels are brought back to Lithgow, where they are accurately weighed and recorded.
Shortly afterwards, to minimise storage onsite the panels enter the process. This starts with a primary shred, of all components.
Once down into manageable size pieces, the material enters the Ecoloop Separator. This separates the aluminium from the panel core, any ferrous metals and the mixed residuals.
Once separated, the materials are bagged and distributed for repurposing.
Ecoloop specialises in ensuring cladding is given new life, so Product Stewardship Accreditation demonstrates our commitment to sustainability. We were the first business to recycle ACPs, so we are very proud to continue to lead the industry in sustainable practices.
