Doors open at 6:30pm for a community social with beer and wine available for purchase. The presentation will start at 7:00pm.
As a part of their commitment to the community, Waste Loop is excited to announce the launch of a new reuse center right here in our valley. Join us for this Red Barn Event to learn from experts in this growing industry, as well as opportunities to get involved in Waste Loop's reuse center opening soon in Cashmere!
Have you ever finished a remodel and been astounded with how much waste was generated in the process? The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that 230 million to 600 million tons of construction and demolition waste are produced nationwide each year in the United States. Fortunately, there are increasingly more options to source high quality used building materials that have been sourced from the deconstruction of other buildings. Waste Loop is proud to present on the critical issue of current building practices and showcase the transformative impact of deconstruction services and reuse facilities on waste reduction. Discover the rise of reuse facilities as integral players in creating a sustainable construction ecosystem, breathing new life into materials that would otherwise contribute to landfills. Waste Loop strives to create a closed-loop system that minimizes waste and maximizes resource efficiency.
