What's Been Said

Kevin James

“Love Cyril Atwell’s passion for what he does. Also the concept of waste being an unnatural resource.”
Robyn Grimsley

Journalist Mining Online 17 October 2017

Dr Kristen Barnes

Cyril Attwell

Grey to Green Presentation May 2017

“Growth is painful. Change is painful. But nothing is as painful as staying stuck somewhere you don’t belong.”
Cyril Attwell

Cyril Attwell

Mining Online Interview 17 October 2017

“People tend to think concrete is simple, but this isn’t the case. Concrete is the most complex crystalline structure known to man.”
Cyril Attwell

Mining Online Interview 17 October 2017

“I am looking at ways of increasing the amount of waste used in concrete while decreasing cement — which is the most expensive part of concrete — with the aim of reducing the price by at least 50%.”
