Casepak Recycling Plant, Leicester

This materials-recycling facility is the first in the UK to incorporate a specialist screen to recognise and separate compacted plastic and metal food packaging.

The Casepak facility sorts and separates dry mixed recyclables at 26 tonnes per hour and has a process capacity of 150,000 tonnes per annum.

Also with areas for pre- and post-storage of recycled materials, the new building allows Casepak to double its processing rate.

The design is completely bespoke and has been developed closely in collaboration with the client to meet their exacting requirements.
