We’ve come a long way since 1991, and we’re proud of our achievements so far.
But, true to our values, our work is
never done! Together as a team, we
want to keep learning, innovating,
and expanding on what it means to
‘recycle right’ – including complete
reuse, recycling, and upcycling.
Very simply, our vision is to provide a cradle to cradle
alternative, reducing waste within the construction and
landscaping industries by being the leader in sustainable
demolition and recyclable products. In doing so, we’ll
provide significant cost savings to our customers and
minimise our environmental footprint to preserve the
planet for future generations. After all, that’s what
it’s all about.

At the core of everything we do, lies a deep commitment to sustainability.
3 Not ones to rest on our laurels, we’re constantly
looking for new ways to innovate, recycle, and upcycle –
benefitting both our customers and the environment.
As a result, we’ve earned a reputation for:
— Delivering world-class sustainable demolition
and excavation services;
— Providing the highest-quality recycled and
upcycled products at affordable prices; and
— Surpassing client expectations with our
friendly customer service.
We have a valued, multi-disciplined team in excess of 45 people, all of whom are dedicated to serving our customers and achieving our vision. Together, we’re transforming the demolition, construction, and landscaping industries by providing a green alternative. We hope you’ll join us on the journey.
At EcoGroup, we’re all about
recycling right.
We do that in a number of ways,
with a range of services and
products. One thing’s for sure
though – we’re not just another
brick in the wall!
We’ve been around since 1991, when Founder Toby Sail,
a professional landscaper and environmentalist, realised
the potential of using recycled bricks in landscaping
works. Since then, we’ve come a long way – expanding
into sustainable demolition and the supply of various
recycled building materials and landscaping products,
including crushed brick for sustainable tennis courts,
recycled timber garden, and much more.
At the core of everything we do, lies a deep
commitment to sustainability.
By maximising salvageable materials and minimising
the waste that goes to landfill, we’re preserving the
environment for generations to come. After all,
what’s more important than that?

Doing things differently takes real dedication. These fundamental values form the backbone of everything we do, keeping us focused on our vision.

Innovation
We believe there’s always room to improve, and new
ideas to bring to life. Innovation is our lifeblood, so we’re
constantly questioning the status quo and inventing
new products and services to make life better for
our customers and the environment.
Customer empathy
We take the time to understand our customers’
needs, and then we leverage our broad experience
and expertise to help them achieve the best possible
result. Our customers value our friendliness,
dependability, knowledge, and passion.
Environmental sustainability
As well as caring about our customers, we care
deeply for our planet. After all, that’s why we started
in the first place! Everything we do is designed to
do no harm, preserving our precious earth for
generations to come.
Positive change
No matter the challenge, we believe where there’s
a will there’s a way! Working together as a team, we
use our problem solving skills and can-do attitude
to invent new solutions that make a positive change
to the way we recycle.
Team work
We can’t do it alone, and neither can you. We consider
our valued staff members and our customers to be
one big team – all working together to recycle right
and preserve our planet.

Asbestos removal
Asbestos removal is a serious business with no room
for error when it comes to safety. We hold a Class B
Asbestos Removal Licence and have the expertise
to safely remove asbestos from your commercial,
industrial or domestic property.
Sustainable demolition
We’re proud to be Australia’s first green demolisher,
minimising waste to landfill by deliberately and delicately
removing all salvageable material before razing a
structure. In doing so, we deliver benefits for both
the environment and your back pocket.
Excavation
If only excavation was as simple as digging
a big hole! We provide excavation services for
commercial, industrial and domestic projects
as a standalone service or in combination
with our demolition service for significant
cost savings. Using the latest equipment,
we excavate safely and efficiently.
Site remediation
Scratching your head and wondering what on earth site remediation is? You’re not alone! Very simply, site remediation is the process of removing contaminants from the ground. We offer a specialised service: determining if you have contaminants, where they’re located, and how to move forward for a cost-effective and practical outcome.

Our Products
9 Recycled bricks and pavers
We’re loud and proud about our love for recycled bricks.
Why? Because they’re 20% cheaper than new bricks,
preserve the environment by reducing waste to landfill
and carbon emissions, and provide an immediate
patina of age and charm. So, it’s no surprise that we’re
Australia’s leading supplier. Whether you’re building,
renovating, or repairing, our extensive range means
we’ll have the right bricks for you – and our unique
brick-cleaning process guarantees they’ll look as
good as new. For landscaping projects, we also
have a vast range of recycled pavers.
Recycled roof tiles
If you’re planning an extension or renovation, or need
to repair your roof, you’ll probably need recycled roof
tiles to match your existing tiles. We offer an extensive
range of recycled terracotta and concrete roof tiles and
accessories, which have been salvaged from demolition
sites across Victoria. Our range of accessories includes:
chimneys, finials, apex, lace ridge, shell ends, ridge caps,
and terracotta caps. We can match your existing roof
tiles in person at our display centre in Clayton, or
via email if you send us a photo.
Eco Toppings
Eco Toppings is a richly-coloured, high-end decorative
product used for landscaping. Ideal for pathways,
driveways, bike tracks, and landscaping features,
it compacts to a smooth yet permeable surface.
Sustainably made from 100% recycled bricks, it
won’t blow away, provides good traction, is easy
to clean, won’t fade, allows water to seep into
the earth, and has no chemical effect on soil.
Available sizes: 0.9mm to 70mm of toppings
and aggregates.
“ Our clients have been extremely
happy with the look of bricks
purchased from EcoGroup, it was
just what they wanted to create
the heritage feel for their unit
site development.”

Our Products
Red Porous Crushed Brick
Our red porous crushed brick (otherwise known as red
brick dust) is crushed to 2.5mm, and is ideal for surfacing
clay tennis courts and baseball diamonds. Crushed from
100% red recycled bricks, it’s a great environmentally-
friendly option for club owners and sports fans. Our
red porous crushed brick comes in 1m3 bulk bags,
25kg bags, or loose by the cubic metre.
Eco Mulch
Eco Mulch is an environmentally-friendly product for
your garden, made from 100% recycled timber salvaged
from Australian demolition sites. In addition to its clear
environmental benefits, Eco Mulch improves soil structure
by aiding moisture retention, helps control weeds as it
contains no weed seed, will not blow away due to its high
density, and is compact to store and use. Eco Mulch is
provided loose by the cubic metre or compressed in
convenient 10kg carry packs.
Eco Briquettes
There’s nothing like a real fire, but fire wood is a pain! It’s
messy, time consuming to chop up, and expensive. Not
to mention, felling trees should be avoided at all costs.
Eco Briquettes provide the smartest timber fire for you
and the environment. Made from 100% recycled timber
salvaged from Australian demolition sites, they’re a
source of bio energy that would have otherwise ended
up in landfill. Environmentally friendly, compact to
transport and store, easy to light and use, containing
no additives or accelerants, and providing a long,
clean burn with great heat in a variety of burner
systems, Eco Briquettes are a no-brainer.
