Setting a precedent for waste diversion

Creating a waste management plan to divert unused materials from the landfill is one of the biggest challenges a construction project faces, and it is essential in maintaining an efficient and responsible business. At our Greisman project we built plywood boxes for each recyclable material and painted them so that separating the materials comes subconsciously to those working onsite.
