the construction team installed 867 CFA piles, with 2,000 tonnes of rebar. Meanwhile, the UK’s leading independent provider of construction materials, Hope Construction Materials,
we do with our waste, with landfill an option that we want to rely on as little as possible in the future. “With
this in is supplying a
substantial quantity of concrete to the new recycling and energy recovery facil- ity. Hope Construction Materials has 180 sites nationwide and is an expert in its field. Hope Construction Materials was initially
asked to supply 17,000m³ of concrete to the project, but this amount has since increased to 19,000m³. The concrete is being supplied from Hope Construction Material’s Leeds-based plant, which is less than a mile from the construction site and reduces the project’s carbon footprint. Tim Goodall
of Hope Construction

As part of this the eco-friendliness of the build has been un- der close scrutiny and we are delighted to be able to offer local delivery – supplying concrete from our central Leeds plant less than mile from the build’s location. “It’s a substantial project, with demands

currently scheduled to reach completion by mid-2016.
