C&D Waste

Transforming the “waste” from the construction site — fine particles under 4mm — into high-value aggregates and products.

Problem / Context

Construction and demolition waste accounts for a very large proportion of total urban waste.

The coarse aggregate can be recycled for roadbeds, but the fine particles (<4mm) are mostly discarded or
buried because they have no usable value — this is what ProtectGD extracts.

Market size

Market size

  • C&D waste accounts for approximately 30–40% of total solid waste in many urban areas.
  • Vietnam’s urbanization rate creates a continuous and concentrated supply of resources.
  • Increasing legal pressure regarding the disposal of construction debris.

Technical

Technical specifications

  • A mixture of concrete, bricks, mortar, and crushed ceramics.
  • Heterogeneous composition — a challenge for traditional recycling
  • The fine portion (<4mm) is rich in silica and calcium.

ProtectGD solution

While traditional recycling only reduces C&D waste to low-value road base, ProtectGD uses Geopolymer technology to transform even the fine particles into high-value construction materials, significantly increasing the value per ton of waste.

BRING VALUE

Economy

Elevating the value from “road base” to “building material” — a significant difference in value; raw materials sourced locally, low transportation costs.

Reduce landfilling and close the cycle within the construction industry (closed-loop construction).
