Description

Wiar provides its clients from the construction industry with a year-round supply of construction and road aggregates such as washed sand, gravel and coarse aggregates. The aim of the project is to implement a low-emission technology for extracting and processing enriched mixtures of sand and gravel aggregates, which will allow the company to stay ahead of market trends related to sustainable development requirements. We are planning to construct a processing and mixing line, purchase machines and carry out development works. The aim of R&D is to determine the optimal composition of mixtures and confirm their suitability in construction by testing their physical and chemical properties. The project provides added value in the environmental dimension by reducing the amount of waste generated and ensuring that part of the waste can then be recycled. 25% of dust fractions generated during production activities will be recovered. In addition, we expect a reduction of carbon emission by 61% thanks to the use of belt conveyors instead of wheeled transport.
