OSS Group Acquires Hall And Campey

21 October 2011

OSS Group has acquired the Nottingham based Hall and Campey for an undisclosed sum

OSS Group specialises in hazardous garage and workshop waste, particularly the collection of waste mineral oils which it recycles into a Processed Fuel Oil product called Gen3.

Hall and Campey is a well established waste oil collection business primarily operating in the Midlands and East Anglia, also specialising in garage waste, secure materials destruction and plastic recycling with two depots in Nottingham.

According to OSS's acting group managing director Iain Lees: "Adding the regional strength of Hall and Campey to our existing national service creates a much stronger organisation in terms of total UK coverage. It operates similar services to OSS and will continue very much as now but with the benefit of the OSS infrastructure and additional customer services."

With the exception of Paul Campey, co-founder of the business who wishes to retire, Gary Swain, the management and staff at Hall and Campey will remain as the integration of the two companies is progressed. The business will continue to operate from the two Hall and Campey sites in Nottingham and OSS Group says it intends to retain staff, so customer collections in the region can be maintained and further services introduced.

The plastics recycling and secure materials destruction operated by Hall and Campey will be developed by OSS with the intention of extending these as products available nationally.

"Key to this acquisition," says Iain Lees, "is that the waste oil collected from Hall and Campey's customer base can now be used by OSS to produce our Gen3 processed fuel oil. We are experiencing a high demand for this high quality recovered fuel so additional feedstock is a considerable benefit. The increased customer list and extended products and services will benefit all customers of the enlarged Group in an increasingly demanding service lead market"
