Reed & Sludge Recycling & Disposal

4R are experts in the recycling, recovery and disposal of organic and inorganic waste streams.

In 2022, we were crowned ‘Organics Recycling Business of the Year’ in the prestigious Let’s Recycle Awards for Excellence.

We have been at the forefront of the recycling industry since 4R began back in early 2006.

Our team has significant experience and an extensive proven track record in bespoke permitting, finding cost-effective, more sustainable, environmentally friendly ways to recycle materials from our projects.

If we can recycle it, we will. Our ethos has delivered significant environmental improvements to our existing customers, as well as saving them significant financial costs and risks.

When the reed beds are cleared a nutrient-dense layer is formed.

This has valuable nutrients which 4R excel at achieving value from and recycling in a cost-effective manner.

All recycling is carried out compliantly utilising our Bespoke permits or site-specific permits approved by the Environment Agency according to the type of materials due to be recycled.

Recycling Reeds & Sludge

Disposal is viewed as a last resort solution for both cost and environmental reasons.

Where Disposal is required due to cost or the analysis of various materials, then the most cost-effective and environmentally sustainable solution is sought.
