Demolition, dismantling, urban mining

Demolition projects often require the removal and disposal of asbestos and other hazardous substances. For years, PORR environmental engineering has been a reliable partner for technically demanding projects that require innovative dismantling concepts. We specialise in urban mining, the professional dismantling of power plant sites and large industrial areas.

This means that PORR environmental engineering is well positioned in all areas: from gutting and dismantling to ecological material separation and disposal. Whether for factory buildings, apartment buildings or single-family homes.

Demolition & dismantling.

In addition to optimal planning and suitable, well-trained personnel, heavy demolition equipment is a prerequisite for a successful demolition project. We attach great importance to ensuring that our construction equipment not only offers high performance and low maintenance requirements, but also has a certain range: long-reach equipment includes demolition excavators up to 175 tonnes and 52 metres in reach, as well as demolition tools up to 10 tonnes. For complex industrial dismantling projects, PORR environmental engineering can therefore offer a more economical and safer alternative to demolition by explosion.

Demolition projects in Vienna and the surrounding area are carried out by our subsidiary Prajo & Co.

Urban mining.

The professional dismantling of power plant sites and large industrial areas is often a very complex project and a particular challenge. Our specialist staff have the expertise to evaluate potential objects as secondary raw materials at an early stage.

We use different recovery options for the following economic analyses: dismantling, disassembly, demolition, rehabilitation and recycling concepts. The insights gained from this form the basis for our calculation of achievable revenues and ultimately for the implementation of land reuse.

PORR environmental engineering is not bound by any regional external dependencies. It covers the entire value chain and the capacities required for urban mining throughout Austria. As a full-service provider, it can therefore guarantee perfect processes from project development to site handover.
