What Valobat does, fig. 02

Valobat collects and recycles construction waste from buildings: insulation, plasterboard, wood panels, flooring, tiles. Producers contribute by category and tonnage put on the French market. The scheme is the youngest and most rapidly evolving in France.

Our role, fig. 04

What we do for the Valobat stream specifically.

Valobat compliance is paperwork-heavy because the scheme is new. We track the regulatory updates and amend your declarations as the eco-contribution scale evolves. We also handle the segregation of inert versus non-inert materials in the declaration.
