Who we are

UK-based.
Globally ambitious.

Dureco Materials is a UK-based cleantech company with worldwide ambitions. We believe in a circular future — one where the resources embedded in today's structures are not wasted, but recovered and put back to work.

Every year, millions of tonnes of concrete rubble are discarded as low-grade fill. We think that is unacceptable. The sand, gravel and cement stone locked inside that rubble are valuable, scarce and worth recovering. So we built a machine that does exactly that — cleanly, locally and without water.

Our team combines deep sector knowledge, proven technology and an international network to fundamentally reshape how the construction industry sources its most basic raw materials. We are headquartered in the United Kingdom, with operations across Western Europe.

Innovation
Patented dry-process crushing. No water, no waste slurry.
Circularity
We close the concrete loop — from demolition back to production.
Local impact
Mobile machines process waste on-site, cutting transport dramatically.
Proven results
Prototype built and tested 2022–23. Certified lab results available.

What we do

The Balista crusher.

Our mobile machine separates concrete rubble into its three constituent materials — clean sand, clean gravel and cement stone dust — each ready for high-value reuse.

01
🏗️

Sand Scarcity

Construction-grade sand is running out globally. 40–50 billion tonnes are consumed yearly while supply is shrinking fast due to environmental restrictions.

02
🌿

CO₂ from cement

Cement production causes 11% of global industrial CO₂ emissions. Recovering cement stone from rubble directly reduces the need for new clinker production.

03
♻️

Waste as resource

30 million tonnes of concrete rubble arise in the UK each year. We transform it from low-grade fill into premium raw materials worth several times more.
