Pure Planet Recycling was formed by Paul Turbutt and Phil Gibbs to collect and recycle waste electrical equipment. The unique selling point of the business was to handle ALL types of electrical waste. Companies were soon benefiting from the services offered and the business began to grow.
Business Developments
After 2 years in business, and with steady growth, the company expanded its coverage region. This saw an increase in Local Authority, Educational Facilities and business contracts. WEEE storage containers were being placed on-site for safe and secure storage solutions throughout 7 counties.
In order to provide a physical method of destroying a hard drive on-site, Pure Planet Recycling created EDD (Eco Drive Destroyer). EDD destroys a hard drive within seconds by bending and snapping the drive without the need for Electricity. This ensures the hard drive is rendered useless prior to shredding and recovering the materials.
Green Business Award
Pure Planet Recycling were recognised in the Bedfordshire Business Awards as Green Business of The Year. In a tough category, they were acknowledged for their hard work in ensuring all business practises were optimised to reduce their environmental impact. Customers of the business also receive the benefit of a green recycling solution.
After 6 years in business and with ever increasing demand the coverage region of Pure Planet Recycling grows to 19 counties. Additional staff and vehicles support the expansion into new territories. This enables access for businesses with multiple locations throughout the South East.
Pure Planet Recycling achieves accreditation for the new Environmental Management System Standard ISO 14001:2015 from SIRA. The company also passes a successful H&S assessment and is now a member of the CQMS safety scheme. These accreditations demonstrate a professional approach in both health and safety and environment impact for the company and its customer base.
The business celebrates 10 green years with a big announcement. Pure Planet Recycling has now expanded to offer a national WEEE collection and recycling service. From small, one off collections, through to lorry loads of waste electrical equipment. An environmentally friendly transport route planner is introduced to reduce the Co2 count. National businesses can now rely on our service levels throughout all of their locations UK wide.
Pure Planet Recycling have provided Wadys Electrical with a professional service over last 8 years and approach everything they do in proactive manner.
As a company we have been using Pure Planet Recycling since 2011 and have found they have been always prompt for collections and all relevant paper work is always ready and in order. First class company to deal with.
Pure Planet provide a great quality service and are extremely professional, all the correct documentation was supplied for the disposal of different materials and a detailed certificate of destruction.
Great service at very competitive rates. To know your waste is being properly treated gives peace of mind and not having to pay through the nose for a decent service makes good business sense. Would highly recommend this company to anyone looking to change provider (or just starting) especially if you want ISO 14001 compliance or maybe just wanting to do things properly with an eye on the planet rather than the bottom line!
