Sheehan Group appeals to the industry to embrace recycled products
Sustainable construction company the Sheehan Group has appealed to the industry to embrace recycled products following the news of another UK materials shortage.
The UK Construction Leadership Council has confirmed cement, aggregates, and plastic products have been added to the growing list of essential items in short supply. They have been added to a list that includes tiles, bricks, timber, and steel.
The Builders Merchants Federation and Construction Products Association both warned high demand for construction products combined with supply issues mean challenges will get worse in the short term. A shortage of raw materials was cited as part of the problem.
