The UK’s largest waste washing plant will open in Merseyside this summer, which will revolutionise the country’s recycling capacity for recycled aggregates<\/h2>\n

The UK’s largest waste washing plant will be situated on a 30-acre site in Kirkby, under the ownership of the CCC Group.<\/p>\n

The CCC Group offer skip hire, aggregate, muck away, and waste disposal services<\/a> across the North West.<\/p>\n

The new waste washing plant is capable of recycling 1 million tonnes of waste per year<\/h3>\n

It will help the firm recycle 100% of the waste brought in from construction, demolition, utility, rail, and excavation projects across the region.<\/p>\n

Director of the CCC Group, Sean Munro, said: \u201cWe are extremely proud to announce the opening of this revolutionary recycling plant in Kirkby. The potential that the plant holds is exactly in line with our environmental values of responsible waste management<\/a> and our 0% landfill ambitions.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot only will the site allow us to recycle all the construction and industrial waste that comes through its doors, it will increase our already notable recycling capacity and help the good people of Liverpool and the North West dispose of their waste more responsibly and efficiently.\u201d<\/p>\n

The built environment is responsible for 25% of the country’s greenhouse gas emissions<\/h3>\n

The plant will be able to\u00a0wash waste material<\/a> brought in and resupply any recycled aggregate material brought in.<\/p>\n

This will reduce the need for new aggregate material and promote a more sustainable \u2018circular economy\u2019 around the built environment, a sector already responsible for 25% of the country\u2019s greenhouse gas emissions.<\/p>\n

CCC Group began in 1986 as a small family-run business based out in Liverpool. It has become the region\u2019s premier waste management firm, working with major UK contractors in recent years.<\/p>\n

It also has several brands under it, including Wavertree Waste and Spotmix Skip Hire, which offers skip hire services<\/a> to businesses and homes across Liverpool and the North West.<\/p>\n
