The Group is dedicated to meeting environmental challenges and has recently become involved in the recycling of obsolete electronic equipment. If you have any equipment you wish to recycle please call us - we should be able to take it off your hands and give you some money in return. We know how important it is for everybody to recycle as much as is possible. Consequently we are a recycling centre for aluminium cans and are the largest independent recycler of aluminium cans in Scotland. Bring your cans to us and you will have taken an important step towards helping the environment. As our craving for recycling knowledge continues we have worked in conjunction with Scottish universities in an attempt to maximise the recycling potential of computer equipment.
