Construction and Demolition Waste | C&D | Skip Waste
Divert from landfill by separating Construction and Demolition Waste into materials such as Hardcore, Soils, Wood(s), Metals, Stone, Cardboard, Paper and Plastics.
Construction and Demolition Waste Recycling Equipment | C&D Skip Waste Processing Systems
Construction and demolition (C&D) waste recycling equipment separates skip waste into profitable commodities: hardcore, aggregates, metals, timber, plastics, and clean soils. M&K’s static, mobile, and modular systems process 20-70+ tons per hour, achieving landfill diversion rates of 85-95% while generating revenue from recovered materials. Our technology transforms mixed C&D waste into sellable products through advanced screening, air separation, eddy current extraction, optical sorting and AI-powered sorting.
What Equipment Processes C&D Waste? Understanding Your Processing Line
Stage 1 Pre-Pick & Bulky Material Recovery
Equipment: Selector Grab
Function: Recovers Oversized materials
Output: Bulky Light Material, Oversize Wood, Oversize fe, Oversize Inert
Stage 2: Pre-Screening & Size Separation
Equipment: Recycling Screens or Trommel Screens
Function: Separates Undersize Fraction 0-10/40mm soils) from oversized materials
Output: 2-3 size fractions | Recovery: 92-97% of fines
Key M&K Equipment:
Stage 3: Light Fraction Separation
Equipment: Air Density Separators
Function: Removes plastics, paper, cardboard, textiles from heavy materials
Output: Clean heavy fraction (95%+ inert) + light combustibles
Recovery Rate: 88-94% of lightweight materials
Throughput: 15-60 tonnes/hour
Stage 4: Metals Recovery
Equipment: Eddy Current Separators + Overband Magnets
Function: Extracts ferrous (steel) and non-ferrous metals (aluminium, copper, brass)
Recovery Rate: 96-99% of ferrous | 85-92% of non-ferrous
Throughput: 20-80 tonnes/hour
Stage 5: Advanced Sorting (Optional)
Equipment: AI Sorters | Optical/Robots
Function: Automated identification and extraction of specific materials
Speed: Optical AI = 3m/s belt speed | 60-80 picks/minute per robot
Accuracy: 95-98% for targeted materials
ROI: Replaces 3-4 manual sorter
Stage 6: Manual Sorting/QC
Equipment: Picking Stations with Conveyors
Function: Remove contaminants, sort residual plastics/wood, quality control
Efficiency: 6-8 sorters process 10-25 tonnes/hour depending on material density
Configuration: 2-X bay stations with extraction, lighting, safety features

Construction and Demolition Waste is typically collected in open skip bins from construction or demolition sites and generally will include:
- Fines (soils, sands, etc)
- Wood (pallets, form boards, and off cuts)
- Plastics (pipes, cable reels, buckets, films, etc)
- Packaging (Cardboard, Soft Plastics)
- Inert/Rubble (brick, concrete, asphalt etc)
- Non–Recyclable Waste (carpets, textiles, tyres etc). Sent for disposal to landfill or RDF/SRF
- Mixed Metals (both non ferrous and ferrous)
- Other materials such as plastics, glass, building panel boards, insulation etc, which may be considered waste or a resource depending on volumes and local markets.
