Lawrence Recycling and Waste Management have developed a £10m recycling facility that will be the largest of its kind in Europe.
The new 210,000 sq ft site is located in Kidderminster and will process 250,000 tonnes of commercial, industrial and construction waste. This will reduce the amount of waste currently sent to landfill helping local authorities and businesses meet their waste targets.
Poundfield Products had been in discussion with Paul J Fleming Associates – the construction consultants on the project for over 12 months in relation to the type of retaining wall system that would be suitable for the application. Ultimately Poundfield’s unique pre-stressed; interconnecting L-bloc system was selected in heights varying from 5m to 3m.

This facility has been a significant development opportunity for Lawrence Recycling which has created more the 70 jobs in the West Midlands and will become a showpiece for other waste operators. |
