Plasterboard regulation

Gypsum Recycling International's plasterboard recycling system is fully compliant with the new EA plasterboard regulations. The new plasterboard regulation means that plasterboard must now be segregated from general waste. Take a look at our unique plasterboard recycling system

EA plasterboard regulation

Below are the main points of the EA, November 2008 plasterboard regulation:

Total ban on disposal of plasterboard waste at mixed waste landfills
The previous 10% rule is gone; the regulations are valid for any amount of plasterboard waste. A zero tolerance policy will be applied
Obligation for HWRC’s, construction & demolition contractors and transfer/sorting facilities to segregate plasterboard waste
Obligation to try to recycle and treat as much of the waste as possible

The EA plasterboard regulation clearly states: “This material must not be land-filled with biodegradable waste. Producers of gypsum waste should separate it for recovery and recycling”.
