World Champions

MGL Demolition won the Best Project of the Year at the World Demolition Awards for our work as part of the Pilgrim's Quarter scheme in Newcastle City Centre. This prestigious international recognition highlights the skills and dedication of our outstanding team. The project involved complex demolition and remediation in a challenging urban environment. Our commitment to safety, environmental responsibility, and community engagement was key to the project's success.

Additionally, we were shortlisted in the Industrial category for our work on the Redcar Coke Ovens By-Products Plant (Phase 2), part of the UK's largest industrial zone.
