Doncaster waste management company announces expansion plans

A Doncaster waste management company has announced that it is expanding into five new regions across the UK.

Ecofficiency, which is based near Doncaster Sheffield Airport, has reduced waste output at Redrow by 45 per cent over the last year, and is now expanding into new areas.

The company has recently added to its 53-strong workforce as it continues to expand the provision of its waste management and recycling services.

It has also said that it is aiming to continue the expansion of its team as it starts work in the new regions.

Neil Howard, commercial director at Redrow NW, commented: “Ecofficiency is this year’s very deserving winner of Redrow’s Supplier of the Year in the north west.

“We’ve worked with Ecofficiency now for two years and in that time they’ve played a vital part in helping to reduce waste output at our developments by 45 per cent.

“This is a fantastic result and we are proactively working with Ecofficiency on further recycling initiatives.”

Simon Raven, managing director of Ecofficiency, said: “We’re delighted to have won supplier of the year after entering a very productive partnership with Redrow NW which has seen us use our innovative process to substantially reduce its waste intensity, generating major cost savings in the region of 45 per cent.

“The results clearly demonstrate that when working with a customer that is fully engaged in this process, our unique approach to managing the reuse and segregation of waste on site will significantly reduce waste output and costs.

“It is very gratifying that our success with Redrow NW is being recognised by other regions in their business and we have now extended our managed service to five other regions across the UK.

“We are supporting Redrow in their North West, Southern Counties, Midlands, South Midlands and Yorkshire regions, and across South Wales.

“There are further improvements planned across Redrow’s regions which will help it to further reduce its waste intensity.

“Ecofficiency has actively recruited new members of staff in recent months to accommodate the expansion of the company, and we are about to recruit more people in operations, supply chain management and IT development as our business continues to grow.”
