In Denmark, we produce approximately 5 million tons of construction and demolition waste annually, and around 1/3 of this is processed by Blue Phoenix.
We operate Denmark's largest waste treatment plant on Amager in Copenhagen and many more strategically well-located reception and treatment plants distributed throughout the country, where we receive, treat and recycle construction waste.
Regardless of whether the waste comes from rebuilding, renovation or demolition, we treat it in an environmentally sound manner and with a focus on recycling. At our facility, we work purposefully to ensure that more and more waste is reused or recycled. In 2024, over 90% of the construction and demolition waste at Blue Phoenix was sent for recycling or recovery.
At Blue Phoenix, we have an ambition that none of our customers should experience driving construction and demolition waste to our reception and treatment facilities in vain. Time is money, and waste fractions that cannot be delivered or recyclable materials that are suddenly no longer in stock mean unnecessary transport and climate impact when trucks drive in vain or return empty. That is why we have developed a stock status function for all of our 18 facilities. You can also subscribe to our newsletter to receive the news directly in your inbox.
According to the Waste Ordinance, it is the responsibility of the developer to ensure correct notification of construction waste over 1 ton to the municipality where the project is being carried out. The haulier or demolition contractor can assist with the notification, but it is ultimately not their responsibility. It is therefore important to ensure that there is always a correct and updated notification of the waste that is sent with the haulier to one of our reception facilities. Contact Blue Phoenix customer service for any help with your notification.
We receive construction and construction waste at most of our 18 reception and treatment facilities throughout Denmark. Contact our sales team for handling your construction waste.
