Abstract
El reciclaje de materiales en la construcción se ha consolidado como una estrategia clave para reducir el impacto ambiental de la industria, que es responsable del 75% del consumo global de recursos naturales. En Colombia, aunque el reciclaje ha avanzado, especialmente en el sector comercial, persisten barreras que dificultan su implementación en proyectos de vivienda. La reutilización de materiales previamente usados en nuevas edificaciones puede disminuir la explotación de recursos naturales y contribuir a la sostenibilidad del sector. Este trabajo busca identificar las razones de la resistencia al uso de materiales reciclados y proponer estrategias para fomentar su inclusión en la construcción, mejorando la eficiencia y sostenibilidad del sector. El sector de la construcción colombiano, uno de los más dinámicos en la economía nacional, enfrenta el desafío de aprovechar los residuos generados durante las obras. Aunque el 50% de los materiales de este sector podrían ser reciclados, solo una pequeña fracción de ellos se reutiliza. Esto revela una brecha en el aprovechamiento de los recursos disponibles, lo que subraya la importancia de desarrollar proyectos que promuevan el uso de materiales reciclados en la construcción de viviendas. De esta forma, se puede mejorar la sostenibilidad de los proyectos, reducir el impacto ambiental y aumentar la eficiencia en el uso de los recursos, a la vez que se contribuye al desarrollo de un mercado más verde.
Recycling of materials in construction has become established as a key strategy to reduce the environmental impact of the industry, which is responsible for 75% of global consumption of natural resources. In Colombia, although recycling has advanced, especially in the commercial sector, barriers persist that hinder its implementation in housing projects. The reuse of previously used materials in new buildings can reduce the exploitation of natural resources and contribute to the sustainability of the sector. This work seeks to identify the reasons for resistance to the use of recycled materials and propose strategies to encourage their inclusion in construction, improving the efficiency and sustainability of the sector. The Colombian construction sector, one of the most dynamic in the national economy, faces the challenge of taking advantage of the waste generated during construction. Although 50% of the materials in this sector could be recycled, only a small fraction of them are reused. This reveals a gap in the use of available resources, which underlines the importance of developing projects that promote the use of recycled materials in housing construction. In this way, the sustainability of projects can be improved, the environmental impact can be reduced and the efficiency in the use of resources can be increased, while contributing to the development of a greener market.
