Recycling

The new legislation being introduced is there for a reason. Responsible companies realise that dealing with their waste efficiently makes sense, both for good practice and for the future of our environment.


Recycling Wood
As members of the Wood Recyclers' Association, Glazewing is dedicated to operating to the highest environmental standards and endeavours to recycle as much wood as it can. Our wood is subject to a separation process as it arrives on site. Glazewing use specialist machinery to process the wood, including our industrial shredder that can turn wood into wood chippings, and can shred all wood up to the size of a whole tree trunk. Our processed wood chippings can be used in various areas including the manufacture of chipboard and as a weed suppressant by the horticulture industry. Glazewing offer discounts on containers for wood suitable for shredding. Our containers are available in numerous sizes, so Glazewing can cater for all. So whether you are clearing your garden or require a large scale commercial service, Glazewing can help!

Glazewing are specialists in the handling of inert waste. Soil, rubble, sand and concrete all go through our waste separation process. To lessen the impact on the environment, Glazewing use specialist screening machinery to sort all types of inert waste and maximise the recycling opportunities. Our recycled soil is supplied as topsoil to householders and also used in major landscaping, schemes such as golf courses and motorway verges. The reclaimed rubble is used in road preparation and the concrete and sand is used by the construction industry. Glazewing offer containers in numerous sizes for all types of inert waste. For small domestic projects to major commercial construction, Glazewing can arrange a bespoke, professional service to meet your requirements.

Recycling Plastics
All plastics received by Glazewing are separated and sorted. It is then either baled or ground for recycling by specialist machinery. The industrial and commercial sector is of great importance. Off-cuts are recycled from plastics factories and the manufacturing sector while plastic film, often used to wrap goods, is usually collected and sent for reprocessing. Glazewing have secure outlets for any form of single or mixed grade plastics, including HDPE, PVC, LDPE, PP, Acrylic and Nylon. All grades of plastics are reclaimed, instead of going to landfill. A collection service is available. We supply containers in all sizes for all grades of plastics.

Recycling Cardboard
The Packaging Waste Regulations, which came into force in 1997 and saw targets set for the first time in 1998, have been a strong influence on recycling in the UK over the past few years. Glazewing recycle all cardboard from our waste transfer station. All cardboard is separated, sorted and baled by our experienced operatives. The bales of card are then pulped and recycled. As a result of this activity Glazewing is saving precious landfill space. A collection service is available.

When it comes to recycling and waste management we mean business.
