The construction industry is one of the largest waste producers in the world, generating more than 30% of total global solid waste every year. A huge part of this waste comes from the on-site cutting of traditional wall materials, leftover mortar and broken bricks. EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panel brings a revolutionary change to this situation, helping construction projects cut on-site wall-related waste by over 90%.
All EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panels are prefabricated to exact custom sizes in the factory according to the architectural drawings. There is no need to purchase extra bricks, sand, cement and other bulk raw materials on the construction site. Workers only need to cut a very small number of panels on site to adapt to special corner positions, and the total leftover material generated from the whole wall installation process is less than 2% of the total wall material volume. This is a world of difference compared with traditional brick wall construction, which usually produces more than 30% of waste.
The few leftover panels and small cut pieces generated on site will not be sent to landfill. They can be directly crushed and recycled as raw materials for new panel production, forming a complete closed-loop recycling system. Even if the whole building is demolished after reaching the end of its long service life, all the EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panels can be 100% crushed and reused, producing no non-degradable construction waste that pollutes the environment.
Many green building certification projects have used this wall panel to easily meet the strict construction waste reduction requirements. A large public cultural center project once calculated that by using EPS Cement Sandwich Wall Panel instead of traditional masonry walls, they reduced more than 1200 tons of construction waste, saved 75% of the waste transportation and disposal cost, and successfully obtained the highest level green building waste reduction score in the local assessment.
