For demolition and construction companies, using the right machinery and equipment is essential because it directly affects safety, efficiency, quality and cost-effectiveness across every phase of a project.

Demolition and construction involve high-risk operations such as structural collapse, debris handling, and working at heights. Selecting suitable and well-maintained machinery minimises the likelihood of accidents and ensures operator protection.

Appropriate equipment selection allows projects to be completed faster without compromising safety or quality. For example, excavators, bulldozers, and skid steer loaders each optimise different stages, ranging from structure removal to site clearing and debris handling.

Efficient machinery selection prevents bottlenecks, reduces rework, and increases equipment uptime, helping companies meet deadlines and take on additional projects – a fact well recognised by WA-based C&D specialist Capital Recycling.

Capital idea

Founded in Perth in 1996, the company has reshaped the way building materials are processed, championing the move from landfill-bound waste to reusable, environmentally sound products.

With its roots embedded in local enterprise, an impressive operational expansion and a relentless commitment to sustainability, Capital Recycling serves as a benchmark for what resourceful innovation can accomplish.

Capital Recycling's journey began with Ray Gullotto, an entrepreneur whose vision was to create not just a company but a movement.

What started as a modest owner-operator venture involved in drainage and earthworks swiftly evolved under Ray's stewardship. As demand for more conscientious demolition and recycling practices grew, so did Capital Recycling's service offerings and its reputation for excellence.

Ray said he brought an ethos of “waste not, want not” to the demolition business.
