Services
Plastic waste recycling
We reprocess post-industrial plastic waste into high-quality compounds and agglomerates. Our advanced facilities handle diverse materials including PP/PE films, medical waste, and industrial by-products. Through rigorous sorting and processing, we transform waste into reusable resources that substitute virgin materials, helping manufacturers reduce costs and environmental impact while supporting circular economy principles.
Waste plastic collection
Our nationwide collection service handles all types and volumes of industrial plastic waste. With a modern vehicle fleet and experienced team, we provide efficient, compliant transportation from manufacturing sites across the UK. Our service includes secure handling of sensitive materials and optimised logistics to minimise environmental impact from transportation.
Environmental consultancy
We offer expert guidance to help businesses improve recycling rates and achieve regulatory compliance. Our consultants work with clients to develop waste management strategies that reduce landfill dependency and enhance environmental performance. This includes advising on waste segregation, processing options, and compliance documentation for various industry sectors.
Compound production
We produce reprocessed plastic compounds suitable for manufacturing new products. Using advanced extrusion technology, we create consistent quality materials from post-industrial waste. These compounds serve as cost-effective alternatives to virgin plastics in applications ranging from packaging to industrial components, maintaining performance while reducing environmental impact.
Toll reprocessing
Our toll processing service transforms client-owned plastic waste into specified end products. We handle materials including regrinds, off-spec batches, and production waste using our specialist equipment. This service provides manufacturers with a sustainable waste management solution while recovering value from materials that would otherwise be discarded.
