Vogel Bros. was awarded a DNR Demonstration
Grant to implement a construction materials management program. Our
goal was to recycle and reuse at least 50% of the construction waste
to assist AEI with meeting the requirements. Waste Cap was hired to
implement the construction materials management plan, working with Madison
Environmental Group, Inc. as the on-site recycling manager.
When the project was completed,
Vogel Bros. had successfully recycled and reused 75% of the construction
waste by implementing a well-designed recycling plan. Our experience
partnering with the project team met the needs and desires of AEI. The
experience and knowledge gained allows Vogel Bros. to incorporate similar
recycling plans and helps us bring our waste conservation practices
to all of our future building projects.
