Capital Recycling

What Capital Recycling does

Capital Recycling, operating as Farfield Holdings Pty Ltd, is a vertically integrated construction and demolition (C&D) services and recycling company headquartered in Welshpool, Western Australia, and founded in 1996 by Managing Director Remo (Ray) Gullotto. The company provides residential, commercial, and civil demolition services, restricted asbestos removal, on-site crushing and screening, and site remediation, serving homeowners, commercial contractors, and local and state government bodies. Its core technology centres on two of the largest C&D recycling facilities in Western Australia - at Welshpool and Postans (Henderson) - combined with a mobile fleet of crushers, screeners, and highway trucks that process approximately 500,000 cubic metres of C&D waste annually and produce 450,000-500,000 tonnes of NATA-tested recycled aggregates, road base, fill sand, drainage aggregate, and Eco Concrete per year.

The business operates a project-based and transaction-based revenue model with multiple distinct streams: project fees for demolition work (residential and commercial), tipping fees at the Welshpool and Postans recycling stations (structured cheaper than landfill to incentivise recycling), unit-priced sales of recycled building products to civil contractors and local government, and usage-based fees for mobile on-site crushing and screening. Pricing is quote-based with a stated willingness to beat any licensed contractor's reputable written quote, plus bulk order discounts on Road Base and Sand products. Capital holds Class I and II Demolition Licences, a WorkSafe-approved Restricted Asbestos Licence, WALGA preferred supplier status, and was the first company to supply remanufactured aggregates to a Mainroads WA project in 2011. Customer reach spans Perth metro and regional Western Australia, with 150-180 demolition projects completed per year and an 80%+ recycling rate on demolition spoils (90% on brick and tile materials).

The company distributes exclusively through direct service delivery, recycling facility self-pickup, and its own branded transport fleet. Marketing is concentrated on website content, organic social (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn), and earned media via industry awards, with referral networks (e.g., builders such as Webb Brown-Neaves) supplementing top-of-funnel lead generation. Headcount is 50+ employees (up from 40+ historically), and the business remains privately held and founder-led with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, or M&A activity.

Direct peers

• Hi-Quality Group: Western Australia-based demolition, asbestos removal, and civil contractor serving the same Perth metro market. Overlaps directly with Capital on residential and commercial demolition, asbestos handling, and site remediation in the same geographic footprint.
• Repurpose It: Victorian-based C&D waste recycling company that turns demolition spoils into certified recycled aggregates, sand, and road base — a near-identical operating model to Capital Recycling's, and a direct competitor for recycled-product market share and government sustainability contracts.
• Alex Fraser Group: Australia's largest construction and demolition recycler, operating fixed and mobile C&D processing facilities across multiple states. Closest like-for-like peer to Capital Recycling's Welshpool/Postans MRF model, recycled aggregate product portfolio, and downstream road base/aggregate sales.
• McMahon Services: Australian demolition, civil, and environmental contractor with in-house recycling capability. Directly comparable to Capital across demolition services, site remediation, and recycled construction materials, with national scope.
• Liberty Industrial: Australian specialist contractor focused on industrial and large-scale demolition, decommissioning, and remediation. Operates in similar end markets (industrial structures, infrastructure) with comparable safety and recycling credentials, though stronger in larger industrial projects than Capital.
• Delta Group: National Australian demolition and remediation contractor offering residential, commercial, and industrial demolition plus contaminated-site remediation. Comparable scope of services and product-style recycling, with broader geographic reach than Capital Recycling.

Broad incumbents

• Cleanaway Waste Management: Australia's largest listed waste management company, providing collection, recycling, and disposal services nationwide including construction and demolition waste streams. A broad incumbent that competes with Capital on tipping services and recycled outputs at scale.
• Veolia Australia and New Zealand: Subsidiary of global environmental services giant Veolia, operating waste collection, processing, and recycling facilities across Australia including C&D streams. A much broader incumbent offering that competes with Capital on aggregate recovery and government contracts at portfolio level.
