Abstract

VARON JIMENEZ, Lina María; SIERRA TOBON, Diana Catalina  and  BEDOYA, Leidi Yulieth. INDURAL: a meaningful contribution to cleaner production and sustainable construction. Rev. P+L [online]. 2011, vol.6, n.1, pp.128-135. ISSN 1909-0455.

By working for sustainable construction and cleaner production, Indural has modified its production process especially with the use of constructions and demolitions debris as raw materials. Reprocessing of debris represents 80% of the raw material for Indural's products, which means a significant contribution in natural resources conservation. Besides, Indural has proposed clear strategies for cleaner production, thus making its environmental commitment evident all over its production chain.

Keywords : sustainable construction; debris from construction and demolition; cleaner production; closed production cycles.
