Yorkshire-based independent recycling and waste management company, Clearpoint Recycling, has announced a landmark contract with Cheshire-based, specialist polyethylene terephthalate (PET) recycler, Enviroo.
The exclusive, agreement will see Clearpoint Recycling support the supply of material to Enviroo’s, waste plastics recycling plant at Ellesmere Port.
Clearpoint Recycling will deliver 35,000 tonnes of PET material each year, when the facility opens in 2027, which will convert PET waste into certified food-grade recycled PET (rPET) to meet the growing demand in the global market.
The deal not only strengthens the UK’s recycling infrastructure, but also supports the implementation of the Governments Deposit Return Scheme (DRS), ensuring a robust supply chain for recovered PET bottles.
Mark Garrett, managing director at Clearpoint Recycling, said, “We are delighted to be supplying one of the UK’s largest and most innovative plastic recycling plants.
“It’s a very exciting time for us as an independent company – this new deal allows us to create new jobs within commercial and operational functions in a fast-moving sector.
“With our launch into Lithuania earlier this year, we have big ambitions and we look forward to continuing our journey of growth, with our core strategy to source locally and sell globally in delivery of this vital global mission.”
Ahmed Detta, CEO of Enviroo, commented on the partnership, “This landmark agreement with Clearpoint Recycling is a significant step forward in strengthening the UK’s circular economy.
“By securing a consistent, high-quality supply of PET material, we are ensuring that our facility at Ellesmere Port will play a crucial role in turning waste into valuable, certified, food-grade recycled PET. This partnership not only underscores our commitment to sustainability but also contributes to job creation in the community and innovation in the recycling sector. Together, we are driving a more sustainable future for the UK and beyond.”
Founded in 2012, Clearpoint Recycling works directly with a number of Yorkshire-based companies, including Yorwaste and H W Martin Waste Ltd to find effective routes to market for recovered recyclable materials.
This landmark deal marks a significant milestone for Clearpoint Recycling, reinforcing its vital role of supply chain specialists and brokers in the recycling market, cementing its position as an integral part of the UK’s circular economy.
