We are thrilled to announce the meaningful collaboration between VEMA Deconstruction and Urban Machine. This partnership marks a pivotal moment for sustainable construction that’s not merely about business. It’s about reshaping the very essence of building removal and material reclamation. The collaboration will lead us to a future where deconstruction reigns, reclaimed wood is used, and environmental stewardship is paramount.
Sustainable Demolition
Based in Vancouver, British Columbia, VEMA Deconstruction has established itself as a beacon of sustainability in the industry. Their unwavering commitment to providing sustainable solutions for building removal through deconstruction has set them apart. Furthermore, by salvaging materials for reuse, VEMA reduces waste in landfills and ensures the availability of affordable materials for the community.
However, VEMA’s mission extends far beyond environmental stewardship. They are dedicated to creating job opportunities. Equally important, they give back to their community through charitable donations of materials (like reclaimed lumber), appliances, and furniture, thereby preventing valuable resources from ending up in landfills.
Robotic Boost
By signing a Letter of Intent (LOI) with Urban Machine, VEMA is poised to elevate its commitment to sustainability to new heights. Moreover, Urban Machine’s cutting-edge AI and robotics will revolutionize VEMA’s wood reclamation process. This technology enables them to remove metal fasteners with unparalleled speed and accuracy. Additionally, using the robot will accelerate the reintroduction of reclaimed lumber into new projects, benefiting the community in many ways.
End Market Assistance
What’s more, Urban Machine’s sales team dedicates itself to partnering with organizations interested in leasing our innovative robot. Furthermore, our team actively assists clients in finding end markets for the lumber reclaimed with our machine. We help identify opportunities to sell reclaimed lumber, maximizing the return on investment for our partners. This collaborative approach enhances the value proposition and strengthens the sustainability impact of leasing our robot by closing the loop on wood waste management.
“We are thrilled about the prospect of speeding up our reclamation process and getting reclaimed lumber back into circulation faster than ever before,” boasts Erick Serpas Ventura, Owner of VEMA Deconstruction. “This partnership exemplifies our shared values of environmental responsibility, resource circularity, and community support.”
“Our partnership with VEMA Deconstruction is a blueprint for sustainable demolition worldwide. Together, we’re rewriting the narrative of building removal, proving that with innovative thinking, resources can be repurposed and projects will reflect a commitment to sustainability,” explains Co-founder and CEO of Urban Machine, Eric Law.
Together, VEMA Deconstruction and Urban Machine are not just partners; they are trailblazers towards a more sustainable future modeling a greener approach to more than just those who support the circular economy.
Stay tuned for more updates as we embark on this exciting journey together and put more reclaimed lumber back into new projects!
