Valormat
A Colas Group brand, Valormat recycles materials from construction sites into new resources, supporting a local and sustainable circular economy.
Valormat, platforms supporting the circular economy
Valormat gives a second life to materials from construction sites by collecting and processing them directly at our local platforms. These platforms transform inert materials into circular resources ready to be reused in new construction projects. Through an approach based on traceability, local presence, and quality, Valormat actively helps reduce the carbon footprint of construction and contributes to building more sustainable communities.
Local sorting and recovery platforms
The Valormat network relies on industrial platforms distributed across the country. They receive inert waste from construction, rehabilitation, or demolition sites, giving it a second life.
Each site handles sorting, crushing, and processing of materials using efficient and safe methods. This local presence promotes short supply chains, reduces transportation, and minimizes the environmental impact of operations.
Certified recycled materials with a low carbon footprint
The materials produced by Valormat—aggregates, crushed stone, and recycled sand—comply with current quality and regulatory standards. They provide the same performance guarantees as natural materials, while coming from a circular process with a lower carbon footprint.
Used in roadworks, industrial platforms, and urban developments, these materials contribute to sustainable construction and the low-carbon transition of the construction sector.

Complete traceability, a mark of transparency
Valormat implements a digital tracking system to ensure full traceability of each material. From collection to reuse, every step is monitored and documented according to environmental standards.
This transparent approach builds partner trust and fully integrates circular economy principles into construction projects.
Recycling and innovation at the heart of performance
Valormat teams innovate to continuously enhance recycling performance:
- Automated sorting,
- Quality sensors,
- Washing processes,
- Material homogenization.
Each platform operates according to the highest industrial standards for safety, quality, and environmental performance.
A locally rooted approach
By reusing materials from construction sites locally, Valormat promotes a proximity-based circular economy. Its platforms support the activities of local businesses and help reduce CO₂ emissions from transportation. This territorial approach strengthens the connection between industry, environment, and local development, placing resource recovery at the heart of construction projects.
By extending the life of materials, Valormat shows that construction can be done differently—more responsibly, efficiently, and sustainably.
