Lithuania: Eco Baltia plans to invest Euro700,000 in the establishment of a new construction waste sorting line in Lithuania. Nordic Daily News has reported that this will enable the company to improve its material recovery rate to 82% from 60%. Supplier Ecoservice will supply the automated line, which can handle waste gypsum wallboard alongside other materials.
Eco Baltia's head of environmental management Jānis Aizbalts said "Considering the increasing volume of construction waste and the need to ensure their reuse, we are purposefully developing construction waste sorting possibilities and new technological solutions. Ecoservice has already completed a modernisation project for the existing construction waste sorting area, installing new and more efficient equipment that will double the company's construction waste sorting capacity."
