Case Study:
5000+ Panels in NW England
For a project in NW England, limited vehicle access required us to deploy multiple vans and personnel to palletise, collect, and deliver the panels to a locally sourced satellite site. From there, we used curtain-side lorries to maximise transport efficiency and reduce the carbon footprint.
The panels were then delivered to our recycling facility in SE London, all panels were 100% recycled with all output recyclables staying within the UK. This process provided the client with a full cradle-to-grave audit trail.
Latest Investments and Updates
- 50 panels per hour throughput: Full deconstruction of every solar panel into its original material components for recycling within the UK.
