Material Recycling Facilities
Kiverco delivers fourth
recycling plant for Binn Group
Kiverco, a global leader in recycling solutions,
has completed the installation of a new
recycling plant for Binn Group, a prominent
waste management company in Scotland. This
marks their fourth collaboration, reflecting a
long-standing partnership built on trust and
exceptional service.
A third-generation family business and Kiverco customer for
over 20 years, Binn Group shares a deep commitment to
innovation and sustainability. Their trust in Kiverco was
reinforced more than a decade ago when a fire at their site
damaged the waste plant.
Kiverco’s rapid response helped them get the plant up and
running again very quickly and this level of support at a critical
time for the business has forged strong lasting relationships
Binn Group’s latest investment supports both business growth
and their drive to adopt greener energy solutions. The new
facility, designed for construction and demolition (C&D) waste,
will boost throughput, improve material purity, and advance
their green energy initiative, which includes converting waste
into energy.
Sustainability is central to Kiverco’s approach. Their plants are
built to ensure a longer useful life and retain their value over
time. Binn Skips sold their previous Kiverco plant to another
waste processor, recouping part of their investment. The 10+
year old system was decommissioned from the Glenfarg site
and recommissioned with another waste company in Scotland.
Marcus
McAlinden,
Kiverco Sales
Manager, said:
"We’re very
happy with this
project at Binn
Group. It
integrates
advanced
automation to
increase
throughput,
adapt to
changing waste
streams, and
future-proof
operations. The
inclusion of an
optical sorter is
a game-changer,
removing wood
as a waste
stream
transforms it
from a disposal
cost into a
valuable fuel.”
As Vice
Chairman of the
Resource
Management
Association
Scotland, Allan
MacGregor
highlighted the
significance of
this project:
"Kiverco has never let us down. Their service and support have
been exceptional. This new facility gives us cleaner
commodities, higher throughput, and the capacity to handle
more waste in the future.”
Stewart Smith, Director of Operations added; “It’s more robust
and heavy-duty than the competitors we considered. Over the
years Kiverco machinery has proven that it dependable and
long lasting and that’s why we’ve remained loyal to Kiverco
who have delivered all four of our plants over the lifetime of
the business. The site combines waste-to-energy technology
with four large wind turbines producing 9MW of electricity,
creating a private grid for power generation and consumption.
Kiverco understood the vision and came up with exceptional
design to bring our vision to life. From the initial enquiry to
installation, I couldn’t fault Kiverco. The installation was
seamless. They went the extra mile."
