Project presentation
ECT recycles excavated soil from the construction industry, backfilling the Villeparisis-Montzaigle quarry on behalf of Placo®.
The input of materials required for backfilling becomes a source of revenue for the quarryman, while ensuring the safety of the quarry.
Backfilling is a 100% efficient alternative to tamping:
- better control of the site’s future stability,
- a source of income, not a cost item.
