Material Reclamation Audits
Material Reclamation Audits
A Material Reclamation Audit is a more cost-effective survey focussing on components that are most likely to be reused and recycled. Materials captured in an MRA can instantly be managed and exchanged directly through the MI platform.
Maximise Recovery. Minimise Waste.
By mapping materials scheduled for removal and assessing their condition, volume, and reuse potential, we help clients divert usable resources from landfill and reduce embodied carbon—unlocking savings while meeting circular economy goals.
MRAs are a great solution for:
- Refurbishment and retrofit projects
- Projects with tight timeframes/deadlines
- Sites with excess material and stock
- Bespoke commercial sites and retail units


Rapid Audits for Maximum Reuse
MI produce a comprehensive digital asset register of materials (catalogue) on-site using our digital platform. A typical office floor can be completed in a few hours and information can be accessed instantly.
End-to-end service: Audits and Exchange
Our Material Reclamation Audit includes three key deliverables:
1. Digital Asset Register: A component-level catalogue with environmental metrics, enabling precise planning for reuse, resale, or recycling.
2. Material Exchange Support: We match available materials with buyers, charities, or reuse schemes via the Material Index Exchange, a digital reuse marketplace integrated into our service.
3. Brokerage Report: At project completion, clients receive a detailed report on:
- Materials diverted from landfill
- Embodied carbon avoided
- Goods Transfer Notes (GTNs) for all outbound materials
