A very traditional industry embraces new technology to deliver its services in the most energy efficient way for the 21st century
Keltbray is the UK's largest specialist demolition and civil engineering contractor. Its Group Managing Director, Brendan Kerr, sought advice to allow Keltbray to better harness the right science and technology for its business in some complex and potentially sensitive environments. This £100m fast growing business carries out demolition contracts for the construction industry at the very top end of the scale. It is also expanding into waste management and remediation technologies some of which are new to Keltbray. Brendan was "keen to secure blue water between Keltbray and its competitors and Science Services are providing guidance and advise. Science Services enable Keltbray to access the right solutions which are better, faster, cheaper and greener for their clients.

Says Damien McDonnell of SSL: "Similar use of some novel technologies could deforest a site turning remnant timbers into useful woodchip or pellets. Recycled glass can be reformed as bricks. Lasers can be used to cut through concrete. Harmful asbestos deconstructed using plasma reactors."
