Roberts Waste choose Kiverco
to help with future growth
Northern-Ireland company Kiverco recently installed a new C&D waste recovery plant at Roberts Waste in Bridgewater, Somerset. The plant was purchased to replace an older waste with the objective of processing current volumes more efficiently and increasing capacity, thus allowing the company to grow their waste business over the next 3 years.
Roberts Waste are a well-known family business who have been operating for over 80 years in the Somerset area. Sammy Roberts started the business back in the 1930’s selling coal in the local area, his son Terry then took over the business and diversified into demolition and tipper lorries throughout Somerset and the South West. Following Terry’s retirement in 2004, his daughters Vicky and Beccy became the third generation to take over at the helm growing and developing the business which now offers skip hire, licenced asbestos removal, bulk earth moving and demolition services.
This latest investment from Roberts Waste will enable the company to handle more waste each day from the Somerset area. The Kiverco plant consists of a hopper/feeder, Combi waste screen, five-bay picking station for manual sorting, two overband magnets to remove ferrous metals, an Air Density Separator (ADS) to remove lights material from the mid-size fraction and a powerful fan blower to remove any lights found in the oversize hardcore material at the end of the recovery process.
