ReCapturit is the online marketplace and resource center for recaptured building materials.
What does that mean?!?
Buildings get torn down all the time. The vast majority of those building materials brought to the ground are then thrown in the ground: the dump.
Many positive forces for responsible reuse are working hard to decrease the amount that fills up landfills unnecessarily, but their admirable efforts are not enough.
We are building an online conduit for information, education and inspiration and for amplification of the flow of recaptured building materials into new construction and new uses.

Yikes! That's low. And, that percentage is not growing much, despite valiant efforts. We need to do more. We can do much more.
It has been only a bit more than a century since we started discarding buildings' remains. Prior to the advent of steam-powered machinery, dynamite and the wrecking ball, most building materials were salvaged as part of the deconstruction process and then re-purposed. Now, the de-construction industry is returning.
