We have been associated with the Waste Industry for many years, both with regard to landfill site works and waste transfer and more recently biogas and composting facilities. Works have included the construction of waste transfer stations, extension of existing buildings and associated roads, drainage, and security and operating equipment. We undertake the construction of waste transfer and recycling facilities on both a Design and Construct, and Build Only basis.
Our experience of landfill sites ranges from initial site development through to final capping and restoration using a wide variety of materials and techniques, including the relocation of special and hazardous materials under environmental and health procedures.
