The organisation, which is based in Brussels, Belgium, is a non-profit Flemish demolition management organisation.

It monitors materials from demolition and renovation sites, from its origin through to the first processor, with the aim of improving reuse and high-grade recycling.

Tracimat, which was founded in 2017, also provides several services for the demolition, decontamination and recycling industry.

As well as carrying out daily monitoring of projects sites to identify bottlenecks, to which solutions are found through research projects, it also performs inspections and provides declarations of conformity of the pre-demolition audit and material flows for different stakeholders. 

The EDA said: “One of its most prominent features is the certification.

“The association certifies the quality of pre-demolition audits, as well as the selective demolition process, by issuing a “certificate of selective demolition” for C&D waste that has been selectively and safely collected and subsequently gone through a tracing system”.

According to the EDA, Tracimat also works to provide information and in-depth training for experts and contractors on the different stages of the recycling route.
