Organização de kits hidrossanitários a partir de estoques remanescentes: um estudo de caso sobre redução de perdas e sustentabilidade na construção civil

Abstract

This study analyzes the application of material kits in the construction industry as a strategy to reduce waste, optimize costs, and promote sustainability. Based on a case study conducted in Goiânia, leftover materials from previous projects were reused through warehouse reorganization, standardized requisition procedures, and the assembly of plumbing kits. The results showed improvements in material control and traceability, as well as reductions in operational losses and time spent searching for materials. From an economic perspective, approximately R$ 80,000.00 in plumbing materials was recovered, corresponding to an estimated savings of 2% to 3% of the cost of this project phase. Although percentage-wise modest, this result is relevant as it is associated with waste reduction and the efficient use of higher value-added materials. From an environmental standpoint, there was a reduction in waste generation and more efficient use of resources. The practice demonstrated alignment with Lean Construction principles and the Sustainable Development Goals, proving to be an efficient, low-cost solution with strong potential for replication in the construction sector.
