Recycling Process

1. Assessment: Before dismantling, we inspect the tower to identify recyclable materials.

2. Dismantling: Trained teams safely take down towers, ensuring minimal disruption to the environment.

3. Material Separation: Components like metals, concrete, and electronics are separated for recycling.

4. Recycling:

   • Metals: Recycled into new tower materials.
