WRAP: The Promotion of the Benefits of Recycled and Secondary Aggregates to the SME Sector of the Construction Industry
WRAP is a major government programme established to accelerate resource efficiency by creating stable and efficient markets for recycled materials and products and removing barriers to waste minimisation, re-use and recycling.

The Aggregates Programmes is addressing barriers to more sustainable use of aggregates under five Themes. This study is part of Theme 5: Supporting Research to increase the use of recycled and secondary aggregates. Click to download (161 KB PDF).

WRAP: Promoting the use of applications incorporating recycled and secondary aggregates in hydraulically bound materials:
No 1: Major roads
This guidance document covers the use of hydraulically bound materials (HBM) for major roads including motorways, bypasses, and significant town or city roads including their structural maintenance. It particularly highlights the advantages in using recycled and secondary aggregates (RSA) in HBM. It covers the opportunities, benefits, and procedures for the use of HBM in such applications and highlights case studies and other key documents for further reference. The guidance will be of particular value and interest to consultants, local authorities, developers and contractors. Click to download (173 KB PDF).

WRAP: Promoting the use of applications incorporating recycled and secondary aggregates in hydraulically bound materials:
No 2: Minor roads and paved areas
Unlike major roads for which there are well known and documented procedures for the application of HBM, the situation for minor roads and paving is less clear and obvious. The information is available but is scattered across a number of not so obviously applicable documents. This guidance sheet is an attempt to bring all the relevant references together.

WRAP: Promoting the use of applications incorporating recycled and secondary aggregates in hydraulically bound materials: Study report
Increased use of recycled and secondary aggregates (RSA) could be promoted by the wider use of hydraulically bound material (HBM) which have the potential to be made with 100% RSA. HBM has been widely used in continental Europe, but is less prevalent in the UK, except, perhaps, for the use of cement bound material (CBM) in highways applications such as road base and sub-base.

WRAP: The promotion of the benefits of recycled and secondary aggregates (RSA) use in the reduction of CO2 emissions
This report describes the review of 26 sustainability and environmental assessment tools and approaches, and the subsequent development of a bespoke tool to promote the benefits of recycled and secondary aggregates (RSA) use in the reduction of CO2 emissions. Two case studies were produced demonstrating CO2 reductions deriving from the use of RSA compared to primary aggregates. Click to download (274 KB PDF).
