Primary EWC classification
| # | Route | Buyer Type | Price Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Recycled aggregate (RA/RCA) | Road contractors, civil engineers | €5–15/t |
| Must meet BS EN 12620 or national spec; asbestos survey required pre-1988 buildings. Crushing and screening on-site retains most value versus haul-away. | |||
| 2 | Unbound sub-base fill | Groundwork contractors | €3–8/t |
| Lower-spec fraction — oversize rubble and mixed rubble/brick still clears at this tier without full crushing. | |||
| 3 | Concrete fines as cement raw meal | Cement producers | €2–5/t |
| <4mm fraction — CaO content must be verified; primary generators are demolition contractors, ready-mix plants (returned/washout concrete), and precast producers. | |||
