Modernization of the recycling plant and circulation system in Alling
MEA Building Systems announces that it has invested over 600,000 euros in the modernization of its precast concrete plant in Alling. This is part of the investment program aimed at improving sustainability as well as production reliability and quality.
The Alling site is to become a role model for sustainability and innovation in the construction industry.
Recycling plant for residual concrete
The investment will reportedly finance a new recycling plant that will be used to process residual concrete. The plant can efficiently recycle the residues that arise during production. Using modern technology, concrete residues can be separated, cleaned and finally recycled. This reduces waste and makes production more sustainable.
The resulting recycled material is then used as a secondary raw material in new construction projects, according to the press release. This reduces both costs and the environmental impact.
The system is designed for efficient water use, where the water is reused. This saves fresh water and in turn contributes to environmental protection as less waste water is produced. The liquid residual concrete and the recycled water are reused for production.
Jochen Engelke, Managing Director of MEA Bausysteme, emphasizes: "The Bibko ComTec 4 recycling plant makes an important contribution to promoting the circular economy in the construction industry. By reusing concrete waste and reducing resource consumption, we are making an active contribution to environmental protection."
Circulation system for the production of concrete light wells
In addition, the circulation system, which is used for the production of concrete light wells, will be modernized. The investments are intended to enable improved control and automation of the plant by renewing the system. This will also increase work safety. The circulation system will be equipped with a visual display and reprogrammed so that errors can be diagnosed more easily in future.
