Dealing with a Full Range of Waste Streams

No matter what your waste problem is, it's likely that PHS can deal with it efficiently and effectively - all the time keeping environmental sustainability and cost control as the main priorities. We deal with a full range of waste types.

Food Waste

Our food waste recycling service is the environmental alternative to Landfill. All food waste collected by us is delivered directly to an Anaerobic Digestion plant where it's processed into compost and renewable energy which feeds the National Grid.

We offer food waste collections for companies of any size, from large food manufacturers through to small corporate kitchens.

Residual Waste

Residual Waste is the material in your rubbish bins after you've removed all of the recyclables. Where economically viable, we transport this to a facility that converts waste into power which is used to run the plant and feeds the National Grid with the surplus.

We can provide a solution to finding the most practical and cost effective waste management option whatever the business.

Wherever commercially viable we offer ZERO landfill to our clients.

Hazardous Waste

Some types of waste are hazardous to human health or to the environment, either immediately or over an extended period of time. If your business produces hazardous waste you have a 'duty of care' and a legal obligation to make sure it's disposed of correctly.

Hazardous waste includes such items as batteries, fluorescent light tubes, needles, broken monitor screens - the list is quite exhaustive. If in doubt about whether any of your waste is hazardous you can contact us for advice.

Paper

"Closed Loop Recycling” is a term you may be familiar with. Closed Loop Recycling is where a waste material is taken from your office and converted into a product that is reusable by your staff. The best example of this is paper, which - according to WRAP - will be 60-80% of the total waste produced by a typical office.

We can collect, shred and bale your waste paper which will then be sent to a mill for conversion back into office paper, or tissue products such as kitchen towels or toilet rolls, which can be used in your business. The process is easy, cost effective and great for your environmental performance.

Other Recycling

Many other items can be recycled such as, glass and plastic bottles, aluminium cans and cardboard. These items are collected from our customers and then sent to the processing company who converts them back into new products.
