PLASTIC RECYCLING

As a plastic recycling company, we recycle or re-use 100% of the plastic we collect.

85% of the plastics produced in the UK end up in landfill and Ecogen buck this trend, buying, collecting and recycling 100% of the plastics we handle, ensuring that none of it ends up in landfill.

Many businesses produce commercial plastic waste as a by-product of manufacturing or simply by way of plastic packaging in their day-to-day operation. While the production of this waste is often unavoidable, sending it to landfill is not. The vast majority of plastic waste is now able to be recycled and an increasing number of manufacturers are now opting to use recycled plastics.

Here at Ecogen we can help with recycling of your plastic waste. Our dedicated account managers can set up a plastic waste management solution that suits your needs and organise speedy and efficient collection from any location nationwide, before processing the plastic for recycling. This achieves maximum material recovery and minimum carbon footprint.

Not only that, but commercial plastic recycling can often represent a cost-neutral or even profit-generating exercise, with Ecogen offering market-leading rebates for plastic waste. Call our account management team today to discuss the recycling requirements of your business, and we'll work with you to find the best way forward.
