Circular Economy – what Tarmac is achieving
Materials circularity is a significant priority for Tarmac.
We already reuse more waste generated by other people than the volume of waste we produce. In 2022, we recycled 99% of the waste generated across our operations and our goal is zero waste by 2030. Each year we recycle over one million tonnes of recycled asphalt planings in new asphalt – translating to 15% of our asphalt production. We also recycle over seven million tonnes of waste and secondary materials as raw materials or fuels from other sectors. Materials mattered to Henry Ford in the 1920s. In a world transitioning to net zero, they need to matter to all of us today.
