MukAway aims to connect contractors, housebuilders, civil engineering, main contractors, recycle yards and wash plant businesses to enable the reuse and redistribution of construction materials.
MukAway calls the new agreenent a significant landmark for its growth, significantly expanding the platform’s density and transactional capability across the UK.
David Robottom, aggregate manager at MV Kelly, said: “MukAway made sense to us commercially from the first conversation. At the scale we operate across hundreds of live residential sites, the ability to efficiently move materials, reduce waste, lower carbon impact, and cut unnecessary cost is a significant operational advantage.
“What impressed us was the density of the network. This isn’t a platform looking for its first users. There are real transactions happening on real sites every day, and that gives you confidence – commercially and environmentally.”
MukAway plans to shortly launch a new ‘merchant facility’, which will allow companies to deal with hazardous materials that can’t be re-used, as well as the opportunity to actively sell products in a business-to-business transaction.
Fraser Linaker, CEO of MukAway, said, “Our merchant functionality will allow MV Kelly and the wider network to source aggregates directly through MukAway. That takes the platform from a material exchange to a full commercial tool, and MV Kelly’s scale means they’ll be able to benefit from that from the moment it goes live.”
Robottom added, “The incoming merchant functionality is a particularly exciting option for us. Being able to source aggregates through the same platform we’re using to manage material movement creates a genuine one-stop solution for our procurement team. We’re looking forward to getting fully embedded and onboarded across our sites and seeing the commercial benefits come through.”
