Major New Waste Management Contract For J&G
Monday 9th January 2012
Print waste management specialist J&G Environmental has won a contract to collect print waste from the UK production facilities of Chesapeake, a leading supplier of cartons, labels, leaflets and specialist plastic packaging to many of the world's major brands.
The two year contract, awarded by facilities management company Prismm, means J&G will collect, recycle and dispose of all general print waste including litho plates and chemicals from 14 Chesapeake sites, including three in Scotland.
To service Chesapeake's Scottish sites award-winning J&G will be using its recently opened waste transfer station based on the Springkerse Industrial Estate in Stirling where by-products from printing works throughout Scotland are being prepared for recycling and reuse.
Blandford-based J&G, part of the Cleansing Service Group of companies, has pioneered print waste management in the UK and now recycles over 90 per cent of all the waste it collects from some 1500 UK printers and newspaper publishers.
