Storage boost
28th January 2020

VEKA RECYCLING has boosted its storage capacity with the installation of a £100,000, 130-tonne silo at its Wellingborough HQ to hold post-consumer window frames prior to recycling.

This latest development is the latest stage in plans for broader investment across the whole facility that will total £10million.

Since moving to the site at the end of 2018, the company has rolled out a number of staged investments. The new silo follows an increase in production space of 20,000ft2 that was signed off last month with a further £4million of investment in the pipeline before the end of the year.

Managing director Simon Scholes said: “To build on our recent improvements to storage and production capacity, we will also be purchasing new machinery, as well as expanding and upskilling our workforce, over the course of the next 12 months.

“The ongoing and planned growth for Veka Recycling is certainly bold, but is an indication of how determined we are as an organisation to raise the standard of PVC-U recycling in the UK, increase the awareness of our processes and make a positive, and profound, improvement to the environment.”
