Dauson: Building on Circularity

Dauson Environmental Group: Pioneering Circularity in Development

In an era where sustainability is more than just a buzzword, Dauson Environmental Group stands out as a beacon of innovation and commitment to circularity. Founded on the principles of environmental stewardship, Dauson has successfully integrated a holistic approach to its business operations, ensuring that every step in its process contributes to a sustainable future. The Group’s ethos of circularity is not only a testament to its dedication to the environment but also a model for how modern development should be approached.

At the heart of Dauson Environmental Group's success are several businesses, each playing a critical role in the circular process. Here’s a closer look at how these companies work together to transform brownfield sites into thriving communities.

Bluefield Land: Transforming Brownfields

Bluefield Land is the first step in Dauson’s circular journey. Specialising in the acquisition of brownfield sites, Bluefield identifies areas that have been previously used and are now ripe for redevelopment. By focusing on brownfields, Bluefield helps to reduce urban sprawl and promotes the reuse of land, which is a cornerstone of sustainable development.

Bluefield predominantly build affordable housing schemes for Local Authorities and Housing Associations in an approach to tackle the current UK housing crisis.

Cardiff Demolition: Clearing the Path

Once Bluefield Land has acquired a site, Cardiff Demolition steps in. Experts in demolition and site clearance, Cardiff Demolition carefully deconstructs existing structures, ensuring that materials are sorted and prepared for recycling. Their meticulous process ensures that as little waste as possible ends up in landfills, aligning perfectly with Dauson’s circular ethos.

Atlantic Recycling: Converting Waste to Resources

The materials recovered by Cardiff Demolition are then transported to Atlantic Recycling. Here, all recoverables are processed and recycled. Atlantic Recycling is adept at turning what was once considered waste into valuable resources, further minimising environmental impact and supporting the circular economy.

Cardiff Demolition: Crushing for Reuse

After the initial recycling phase, Cardiff Demolition takes on the task of crushing arisings into 6F2, a high-quality material used in construction. This crushed material is then ready to be reused on site, closing the loop on materials and ensuring nothing goes to waste.

Neal Remediation: Restoring Land for Future Use

Neal Remediation plays a crucial role in managing and remediating land to make it suitable for civil engineering projects. Their expertise in land restoration ensures that previously unusable sites are prepared for development, furthering Dauson Environmental Group’s commitment to sustainable land use.

Bluefield Land: Reusing Crushed Materials

The crushed material produced by Cardiff Demolition is then utilised by Bluefield Land on-site for various construction purposes. This not only reduces the need for new materials but also enhances the sustainability of the development process.

Neal Soils: Distributing Surplus

Any surplus material that is not needed on-site is handled by Neal Soils. They specialise in the sale and distribution of excess materials, ensuring that nothing goes to waste and that other projects can benefit from high-quality, recycled materials.

Bluefield Land: Building the Future

The final step in the process is the construction of new housing on the recovered brownfield sites by Bluefield Land. These new developments are a testament to the effectiveness of Dauson Environmental Group’s circular approach, transforming once-neglected areas into vibrant communities.

A Model for Sustainable Development

The work being done by Dauson Environmental Group and its affiliated businesses is a prime example of how a commitment to circularity can lead to sustainable development. Each company within the group plays a vital role in ensuring that resources are used efficiently, waste is minimised, and the environmental impact is reduced.

By focusing on brownfield sites and integrating a circular process, Dauson Environmental Group not only contributes to environmental sustainability but also revitalises communities, creating a brighter, more sustainable future.

This innovative approach is what we are implementing at Porth, showcasing the power of circularity in action. As Dauson Environmental Group continues to grow, its commitment to these principles.
