Earth-Exchange UK Limited is a cutting-edge platform designed to assist UK developers and contractors with the sustainable reuse of construction materials.
The easy-to-use website is the first of its type in the UK and has been in development for several years. It enables members to trade materials, save money and improve sustainability credentials by using an interactive map to search and review sites with a surplus or requirement for recycled materials locally.
- Earth Exchange is the only UK-independent web portal aimed at developers, contractors and landowners to enable the free exchange of soil and aggregates between regional locations
- Members can use the web portal to access the up-to-date availability of surplus resources and details of requirements from other local sites
- Earth Exchange is unique. We don’t benefit financially from any savings made by exchanging soils, aggregates or other on-site resources – you, the member, retain 100%
- We therefore save members money and boost sustainability by facilitating the reuse of surplus materials
The Earth Exchange web portal is easy to use
- Sign up to upload all your sites under one subscription per region
- Wait for other members to make contact with their requirements
- Then, start saving costs through the exchange of materials locally, whilst accelerating your sustainability goals
