The aim of this study is to analyze the potential of use construction waste recycling products in terms of economy and its development in Indonesia, case study in Jakarta area. This paper will use descriptive analysis with literature studies based on several references related to similar cases. The result show that 40-60% of waste from construction and construction can be recovered and recycled. Economically, waste minimization is also feasible because reuse of construction waste is estimated to be worth 2-3% of the total project budget. Therefore, the construction industry can save by applying waste minimization in the project.
