Agecko provide excellent wood and pallet recycling services for businesses all over the UK. Your waste is transformed into a new product, lowering your environmental impact.
Every year five million tonnes of waste wood is generated in the UK. Wood recycling and reprocessing is growing thanks to landfill taxes and government initiatives.
Pallets are the easiest type of wood waste to recycle because they’re usually clean (untreated) and easy to handle. Forklifts can easily load and unload them. Agecko collects all wooden pallets and sorts them by size and quality for recycling or reuse. If we can’t reclaim the wood, we chip it into animal bedding, biomass fuel, or panel boards.
Recycling timber is a practice that was popularised in the early 1990s. Deforestation and climate change prompted both timber suppliers and consumers to turn to a more sustainable timber source. Processors often turn wood waste into new wooden products such as recycled flooring or garden decking. Manufacturers create laminate flooring by shredding wood and gluing the pieces together to form the final product. Facilities can also compost waste wood or burn it as fuel.
Agecko offer bespoke or scheduled collection and recycling service for all your unwanted pallets and wood. Many organisations we work with are already benefiting financially. Dependent on the quality of your pallets, you can qualify for wood and pallet recycling rebates.
