Material Background: Domestic kerbside material, the material is tipped into a warehouse where it gets loaded into a hopper feeding the plant.

First stage is a cabin focusing on removing large pieces of OCC and also any non-recyclables that may damage the plant

The material runs through over band magnet to remove Ferrous materials. An optical sorter then targets all fibres.

Plastics are targeted by various optical sorters focusing on the following – PET, HDPE Nat, PP/HD Jazz.

After each optical sorter the plant has cabins where non target material is picked out of the continuing stream.

Material then heads into a bunker before baling – after this the site carries out a visual QC of all the bales and if any do not meet the required standards these are put back through the plant.
