Waste Reduction & Recycling Ltd is a leading company within their sector specialising in all aspects of waste disposal and recycling nationwide. Waste Reduction & Recycling contacted Aganto following a Storage problem caused by the handling of sensitive materials whilst undertaking a site clearance at their clients’ premises.
One of their major clients local to their business had called them in to oversee the disposal of materials prior to them moving premises which involved everything from hiring in skips for the general non recyclable waste to the organisation of cranes and heavy lifting equipment to remove machinery out of buildings. The stumbling block was that the site was in a notorious area. Materials such as general waste, sensitive papers for shredding / recycling and cardboard bailing due to the associated risks and sensitivity could not be left in a vulnerable location. In addition Waste Reduction & Recycling were also organising an option for all their metal recycling needs from old light iron filing cabinets to the non ferrous items such as brass fittings and copper piping. A site visit prior to the project made clear that in addition to these factors customers machinery would also have to be moved and stored for several months prior to transportation to new premises.
Waste Reduction & Recycling contacted to Aganto to seek a solution to the problem and to discuss their requirement to hire a Temporary Structure at short notice for their site.
Based on their requirement Aganto provided a 10m x 40m x 4.2m secure storage structure from order to erection and handover completely in keeping with the client’s lead-time requests. The building was supplied with a steel roller shutter door being 4.8 metres wide x 4 metres high, security steel clad side walls, tensioned PVC roof system, lighting, cabling and distribution.
In addition Aganto also supplied a racking / shelving system and a complete flooring system comprising of co-polymer polypropylene supporting 3.5 tons of axle weight or 100 tons/sq metre loadings suitable to cope with forklift movements combined with Heavy Machinery.
Chris James, Managing Director of Waste Reduction and Recycling comments ‘Aganto were responsive, client focussed and delivered. From my initial enquiry Aganto listened to our problem and provided the perfect solution even handling our shelving and electrical requirements. The response was immediate and we progressed from that first call to a complete usable building in what seemed like no time at all. Moving into an unfamiliar sector can be problematic but Aganto’s emphasis on service and attention to detail gave us complete confidence. Importantly to a company like ours so involved with environmental issues, we were incredibly encouraged to learn that Aganto’s structures are also completely recyclable and that Aganto incorporate this fact into their own environmental policy, something that we paid particular attention too’.
