Material Reuse and Sustainability

Kalmar Construction partnered with Mutu to share surplus materials across the business and support sustainability reporting for their Toitū certification. Mutu gave project teams a digital inventory of materials returning to the yard, so anyone across the organisation could check availability from their phone on any site.

Kalmar paid back a year’s subscription in just 43 days — a Mutu record against a typical payback of around 90 days — and saved more than $48,000 across projects by reusing materials instead of buying new.

Results include a reduced need for new material purchases, improved reuse of existing resources and a strong return on investment across sites.

"We always have had materials left at the end of jobs that we have brought back to our yard. While we encouraged our Project Managers to try and reuse the items in there, the fact that it was difficult to see what was there meant it was always easier to buy brand new. What the Mutu app has allowed us to do is to create a digital inventory management system for materials as they come back to the yard after a project is completed."

Why visibility matters

Commercial project teams need visibility beyond their own site.

When each project manages its own materials, equipment and tools separately, valuable resources can become hidden inside site-by-site silos. One team may be ordering or hiring something that another project already has available. Mutu gives commercial construction teams one shared view of resources across the business, helping teams find what exists, where it is and whether it can be reused.

Why reuse matters

Reuse helps commercial construction teams reduce cost and waste.

Commercial construction projects often generate leftover materials, temporary resources and underused equipment that still have value. Without a simple way to share these resources, they can be stored, forgotten, reordered or discarded. Mutu gives staff instant access to the resources already available across the business, helping reduce duplicate purchasing, unnecessary hire, landfill waste and missed sustainability reporting opportunities.
