Projects

As part of our remediation and sustainability strategy, we imported “clean cover” materials under CL:AIRE – Leading sustainable land reuse protocol from another nearby Careys’ project.

Implementing an effective and efficient strategy
In order to overcome the challenges presented by the need to remediate the significant amount of additional spoil – such as potential delays and extra costs – our remediation manager and environmental consultant, AAe, devised a mitigation method. This included bio-piling, asbestos picking, screening/crushing and segregation under a watching brief.
In addition, one of our most important and effective remediation tools on this project was our in-house lab and soil engineering plant. This state-of-the-art plant forms part of our self-delivery model, which gives us the ability to offer a wide variety of construction solutions. It enables us to carry out sustainable cleaning and reuse of soil without the need to engage costly and time-consuming third-party services.

Sustainable soil washing plant
At Watford Riverwell, our soil washing plant allowed us to process up to 750 tonnes of earth each day, separating aggregates of different sizes from the soil in preparation for possible reuse. Use of this soil engineering plant significantly contributed to our impressive delivery time. Approximately 20,000m3 of soil was processed by our soil engineering plant.
