into measurable outcomes. Paul explains, “We not only help clients reduce their environmental impact, but there are also cost advantages to our approach. By segregating materials on-site rather than treating everything as mixed waste, we can reduce disposal fees and maximize the potential for recycling. So, there’s a financial incentive as well.” This combination of accountability, transparency, and cost efficiency makes it easier for businesses to meet sustainability targets while improving their bottom line. It also helps clients comply with green building certifications and sustainability reporting requirements. As part of its operational innovations, Revert has introduced a segregated waste system that uses color-coded bins to sort materials like plasterboard, cable, e-waste, particleboard, metal, cardboard, concrete and general waste. This system helps ensure that recyclables are processed efficiently and prevents contamination that could lead to increased landfill diversion costs. This waste-sorting solution is one of Revert’s most significant contributions to the industry, as it streamlines recycling without compromising project timelines or quality. “We know that when clients can see how the system works and understand the value it brings, the process becomes easier to adopt,” says Paul. “At first, it was challenging to convince some contractors, but over time, as the benefits became clear, the adoption rate skyrocketed.” Another area where Revert is pushing the envelope is in the realm of adaptive reuse.
