NTR plc, the international renewable energy group, has announced
that equipment installation has begun at Greenstar Atlas,
London’s newest and largest materials recycling facility (MRF).
The facility will bring critically-needed capacity for processing
domestic and commercial dry recyclables to the capital and
strengthen Greenstar’s footprint in the south east of the
country.
Licensed to process up to 250,000 tonnes of recyclables per
year - as well as handling a further 250,000 tonnes through
its waste transfer station, Atlas is designed for high volume,
high speed processing to consistently high quality output
standards.
Greenstar
has already secured local authority contracts for processing
over 100,000 tonnes of domestic recyclables annually and plans
to win commercial recyclable collection and processing contracts.
Greenstar UK CEO Ian Wakelin said the construction programme
should mean Atlas starts full operation in the spring. “The
high speed processing capacity and output quality for Atlas
will be strategically important for Greenstar and for local
authorities in the capital and the south east.”
