About BreMap

BreMap is a web based tool developed by BRE and was originally funded by Biffaward through landfill tax credits and a grant from the Institution of Civil Engineers R&D Enabling Fund.

BreMap is an interactive tool designed to help you find the most appropriate method for managing your waste based on distance with sites listed for reuse, recycling, transfer and sorting, recovery and landfill. BreMap can be used to assist with defining your waste management options as part of Site Waste Management Plans (SWMPs). You can develop and implement a SWMP by using our free online tool SMARTWaste Plan.

The system also lists sources of reclaimed and recycled products and equipment for recycling and reprocessing.

Searching BreMap

Type in the postcode or county of your site and a search radius to look for waste management facilities using the following options; company activity, product/waste group or material recovered. BreMap will present you with a map showing the waste management facilities available in your chosen area. Brief details of these results are displayed as a table and more detailed information of a particular facility or company can be viewed by clicking on the company name.

You can also add companies to a route plan to show a map of the route from your site to the companies of interest.
