4Recycling Wins Digestate Recycling Contract With Biffa

20 July 2011

4Recycling Ltd, part of the 4R Group, has recently been awarded a three year contract by Biffa Waste Services to recycle digestate from a new state-of-the-art 120,000 tonne per annum capacity AD facility recently opened at Poplars, near Cannock in Staffordshire

Mike Holt, managing director of the 4R Group, comments: "We are really pleased to be supporting Biffa on this important contract. Our team of Soil Scientists and Operational staff have decades of experience in developing recycling outlets for organic materials, delivering huge carbon savings by substituting out fossil-derived fertilizers in agriculture or bringing brownfield land back into productive use.

He added: "4R Group technicians are continually working with clients to develop value added fertiliser replacements which are then marketed through the 4R Products business. This is an essential activity given the Government's focus on delivering a zero waste economy - developing markets for these products will be a key test for the Coalition."

Production of digestate from the Poplars contract to PAS 110 standard is likely to commence later in the year and 4Recycling Ltd will provide a complete technical, transport and recycling service for both solids and liquids working with local contractors and landowners to provide a continuous service for the plant.
