| − | The construction industry has been on the rise in many years. As the number of people on the planet is increasing, as is the requirement for constructions. This greatly increases the required materials, which the planet is producing, but maybe not as fast as demanded. If sustainable solutions are brought to the entire process at a construction site, the fast-paced construction industry might be able to lower their carbon footprint. Through improvements of the waste system and more focus on reusing the materials worldwide, the construction industry would be able to get to a level where the materials are not emptying at an alarming rate.

| − | Furthermore, the waste of the constructions sites has multiple ways of being reused and can even be redistributed to other construction sites, if properly handled.
| |
| − | If a construction site is aware of this possibility in an early stage, this has potential to become an easy task. Although if not properly handled in the beginning of a construction, it can be a very hard task. This mainly because many companies and workers in the industry is not currently used to dealing with these actions.

| − | The way the materials is used also plays a part in the sustainable way of thinking. If a construction is built with the intention of taking it apart at some point, the materials is easy to use in another construction at another time.
