Single Stream Recylcing
We try our best to recycle as much waste as possible but there are some items we have yet to find a solution for. Often they cannot be recycled because of food and chemical contamination. These items are collected by Biffa and used to generate electricity in a process known as ‘energy from waste’.

Energy from waste is created by incineration as the heat created in the furnaces is used to generate electricity. In the last two years we have halved the amount of waste that gets incinerated.
