PlanetReuse makes it easier to incorporate reclaimed building material into projects around the world. As a brokering and consulting company, we match materials with project needs. Our process is streamlined and efficient: we locate and source the materials, test for quality and document for LEED and Living Building Challenge certification. This frees designers to focus on what they do best, and help divert tons of construction materials from landfills. The PlanetReuse objective is simple: save projects money, save designers time and save the planet. Founded by an architectural engineer with construction expertise, the PlanetReuse consultants know the design and construction world and speak the language. Like the design team, we care deeply about responsible and sustainable construction. That’s why making it significantly easier for them to source reclaimed building materials is our mission. PlanetReuse is one of few examples where going green saves money while saving the planet.

Reuse Alliance is a national nonprofit working to increase awareness of, and access to, reuse — by educating the public about its social, environmental and economic benefits and by providing capacity-building services that strengthen the reuse community.We envision a world where people are actively engaged in the reuse movement and as a result have created a cleaner environment, a greener economy for their communities, and a more equitable society.

The IQ software is agile, scalable and easy to use while maintaining sophisticated reporting mechanisms managers depend on to measure success. IQ is making economic, environmental and social impact serving the first of several vertical markets: the discount home improvement retail industry (e.g. reuse centers).
