Worcestershire’s new clinical waste treatment plant in Malvern has taken its first clinical waste load this week.
The out of date flu vaccines were sent for high temperature treatment to make space in a cold storage warehouse for a new vaccine. This method of disposal offers a high level of safety and security for clinical and hazardous waste and minimises environmental impact.
The Brexit transition period ends on December 31st 2020. From 1st January 2021 new rules apply and businesses will face disruption to trade, deal or no deal.
Since the 2016 Brexit vote, the waste industry have stressed the impact it could have on the RDF export industry. One clear additional burden on the industry is the requirement for additional Customs documents, leading to an increase in time-consuming administrative workload, further processes to manage and, if not managed properly, confusion.
After what has been a very unpredictable and unusual year, Andusia would like to wish you a Merry Christmas and a much improved 2021!
By end of 2020, Andusia will have exported 1.5 million tonnes of RDF in almost 9 years in the industry. Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, Andusia continued to work closely with UK waste suppliers and EfW plants. RDF export levels remained, managing to also secure numerous new contracts.
As this (very unusual!) year comes to an end, we’re looking back at the top 5 news stories for Andusia.
As an expert in the waste export market, Andusia are seeing a growing trend of more waste producers looking to get the best value from their waste. On the face of it this makes perfect business sense, but further processing of waste to SRF quality, doesn’t necessarily lead to a lower disposal price or return on investment.
