The facility must adhere to stringent environmental measures to ensure compliance with its operational waste licence. Ashgrove Recycling has over 20 years experience in waste management and were the first company in Cork to obtain an Environmental Protection Agency Waste Licence for a waste transfer station. By availing of the services Ashgrove Recycling provides allows the customer peace of mind that all our collection and processing regimes are carried out in compliance with the requirements of the Waste Management Acts, 1996 to 2003.
The facility has recycling plant installed that allows it to retrieve recyclable materials and this helps it to divert it from unnecessary land filling. Ashgrove endeavour to carry out all its activities in an environmentally compliant manner. Since operation, we have constantly increased our recovery rates which allow materials with high embodied energy to be recovered. This has positive implications ranging from the conservation of natural resources to reducing carbon dioxide emissions. |
