More info on National Demolition AssociationWhile implosions represent the most visible face of demolition, they are only a relatively small portion of the total work of the industry. From structural demolition and dismantlement to industrial recovery and C&D recycling, from specialized rigging and landfilling to insurance services and equipment manufacturing, from general contracting and architectural salvage to facilities decontamination, asbestos abatement and nuclear clean-up, the demolition process involves an unimaginable breadth of products and services to meet the needs of our clients and the community. We respond to disasters as emergency support personnel, clean-up Brownfields and Superfund sites, provide the scrap industry with their feedstock, process a huge quantity of our wastestream for reuse and recycle our nation's most valuable resource, its land. Find out how we are playing a leadership role in Environmental Stewardship, Community Development and Disaster Response efforts.
