CSG acquires Remondis UK Ltd

10 October 2018 by CSG Press Office

Leading waste management company CSG has acquired industrial waste specialist Remondis UK Ltd.

The deal represents a further step in CSG’s ambitious growth plans and a continuation of its expansion in terms of national coverage and diversity of operations.

Prescot-based Remondis UK Ltd provides specialist recycling of hazardous and photographic waste, silver recovery and trans-frontier shipments (TFS). Currently operating from CSG’s flagship waste processing facility at Cadishead, Remondis was the first company in the UK to be granted a TFS licence, permitting it to transfer hazardous waste out of the UK for processing or use in energy generation overseas.

Neil Richards, CSG’s managing director, said: “This acquisition ensures CSG remains at the forefront of waste recovery and recycling. The processing capability delivered by Remondis perfectly complements our existing specialist services and enables us to offer a complete range of waste management solutions for industrial customers.

“Like us, the Remondis Group is a family-run business, dedicated to the recovery of raw materials and minimising waste going to landfill, so we see excellent potential in this deal to grow and develop CSG over coming months and years, especially in the area of diverting waste for use in energy generation.

“Our ambition remains to grow a sustainable, innovative and prosperous business while maintaining a high level of commitment to customers, shareholders, employees and the environment. This latest acquisition enhances those plans”

CSG was founded as a one-man sewage collection business in rural Hampshire more than 80 years ago and now employs a national workforce of nearly 500 people. The company is one of the largest privately-owned industrial and domestic environmental waste management groups in Britain, operating from 27 sites across the UK.
