Urgent Action Needed: Ireland’s Low Circularity in Construction & Demolition Waste

Ireland has made significant strides in managing construction and demolition (C&D) waste, achieving an 82% recovery rate—exceeding the EU’s 70% target. However, a closer look at the figures reveals a critical issue: only 10% of this waste is recycled, with the vast majority directed towards backfilling. Additionally, while Ireland’s overall Circular Material Use Rate (CMUR) stands at a mere 1.8%, far below the EU average of 11.5%, the construction sector plays a crucial role in this deficit. The construction industry generated 32.6% of Ireland’s total waste in 2020, making it the largest contributor among all sectors. Yet, limited recycling and reuse efforts mean that valuable materials are not being reintegrated into the economy. This reliance on backfilling rather than recycling highlights a key area where improvement is necessary for Ireland to align with leading European countries in sustainable construction waste management.
