<abstract displayLabel="Summary">Based on volume, Construction and Demolition (C&D) waste is the largest waste stream in the EU  it represents about one third of all waste produced. Proper management of C&D waste and recycled materials  including the correct handling of hazardous waste - can have major benefits in terms of sustainability and the quality of life. But it can also provide major benefits for the EU construction and recycling industry, as it boosts demand for C&D recycled materials. However, one of the common hurdles to recycling and re-using C&D waste in the EU is the lack of confidence in the quality of C&D recycled materials. There is also uncertainty about the potential health risk for workers using recycled C&D materials. This lack of confidence reduces and restricts the demand for C&D recycled materials, which inhibits the development of C&D waste management and recycling infrastructures in the EU.</abstract>
