The Challenge: A Costly Waste Problem on Site

In Italy, a construction company found itself dealing with a problem that’s all too common in the industry—mountains of mixed waste piling up on-site. The material contained a mix of concrete, rebar, and other construction debris, making disposal a major expense.

Hauling the waste to a landfill wasn’t just costly—it was also inefficient. Between transportation fees, landfill charges, and wasted material, the project was losing both time and money. The team needed a way to process waste directly on-site instead of paying to remove it.

ALLU in Construction Waste Processing

The Solution: ALLU Transformer DSB 2-17

To take control of the waste instead of working around it, the company brought in an ALLU Transformer DSB 2-17 with TS25 blades. The bucket made it possible to handle all materials in one step, eliminating the need for extra crushing equipment or separate processing units.

  • Concrete was crushed into smaller fractions that could be reused as sub-base and fill.
  • Rebar and metals were separated directly during screening, making them easy to collect and recycle.
  • Fine materials were screened and repurposed, reducing actual waste to a bare minimum.
Rebar and metals were separated directly during screening, making them easy to collect and recycle.

The Results: No Landfill Fees, No Wasted Material

With ALLU, the company eliminated landfill fees, cut transportation costs, and turned waste into reusable material for new construction. Instead of treating debris as a burden, they processed it efficiently on-site, cutting downtime and improving sustainability.

ALLU in Construction Waste Processing

For demolition and construction projects, handling waste efficiently means lower costs, faster operations, and a reduced environmental impact. ALLU screening and crushing buckets allow contractors to screen, crush, and separate materials in one step, eliminating the need for multiple machines. Whether dealing with reinforced concrete, bricks, asphalt, or demolition debris, ALLU helps transform waste into material that can be put back to use—directly on-site.

Model ALLU Transformer DSB 2-17 screener crusher with TS25 blade setup

Problem

Construction waste comprising of concrete, metal and other construction materials requires processing before reuse. If left unprocessed, the material cannot be further utilized meaning that the contractor is subject to expensive transportation costs and landfill fees.

Solution

The material was processed with an ALLU Transformer screener crusher. The concrete was crushed and then recycled; the metal pieces were separated from the material and further recycled with the fines being used as fill and sub base.

Benefit

By processing the waste with an ALLU Transformer screener crusher, there wasn’t a need for expensive transportation costs and no landfill fees. The fines material was reused and all the materials were recycled correctly.   TRANSFORMING YOUR GREEN CREDENTIALS.

Model ALLU Transformer DSH 3-17 screener crusher with X75 drums

Problem

Construction waste emanating from a development project needed to be processed for disposal, with material for re-use being separated from material to be landfilled. Due to the large particles in the construction waste, its reuse had proved to be impossible because of the lack of an efficient screening system. This could have led to the disposal of all the material in the landfill. As a result, the contractor would have incurred additional haulage and landfill costs.

Solution

The construction waste was screened and crushed using the ALLU Transformer screening bucket. Processed material could now be used as the foundation material for buildings. Only a small portion of the material had to be disposed of in a landfill.

Benefit

Less material to landfill and efficient utilization of waste material supports sustainability. It also reduces extra costs incurred due to reduced landfill payments and at the same time generates income from recycling and utilizing the processed material. Furthermore, haulage costs and negative environmental impact are reduced as there is no need to remove the existing material nor buy in new.
