Our Facilities
OVERVIEW
We have three operational sites in Carlisle, Workington, Penrith and Middlesbrough. Each site has a MRF (Material Recycling Facility), active bailing operations for pre-sorted materials and the capability to separate mixed waste streams. Materials that are segregated on site include but are not limited to:
- Cardboard & paper
- Wood
- Metal – including aluminium and steel cans
- Plastic
- Construction/demolition waste
HESPIN WOOD, CARLISLE
As well as being the home of our two MRF’s, our flagship site Hespin Wood is home to a wood and green waste recycling facility. This facility alone processes around 70,000 tonnes per year. Also sited at Hespin Wood is our aggregate recycling plant. This is where we crush, clean and sort mixed aggregates into reusable material for the construction and building industries.
DISTINGTON, WORKINGTON
Our site near Workington is home to our liquid waste treatment plant and our hazardous waste transfer station. The site is licensed to accept a wide range of drummed and packaged waste streams.
With a team on qualified chemists based on site to offer professional guidance, the service is not only comprehensive but it also provides our customers with peace of mind that their waste is being handled in a safe and compliant way.
FLUSCO, PENRITH
Our Flusco site is home to a newly extended MRF. This is a valuable asset to the business as it allows us to increase capacity for the area in terms of collections and increasing recycling outputs.
PUDDLERS ROAD, MIDDLESBROUGH
Our newest acquisition has given us the ability to service commercial businesses and domestic customers through Local Authority contracts, and is capable of processing any mix of recyclate streams, including plastics, paper, card, glass and cans.
