Workplace services provider PHS Group has launched a new operation to boost growth in the chemical and hazardous waste market.
The three companies, all PPC licensed waste transfer stations, forming the new division are Reformation, based at Ormskirk, SWS of Newark and Wastecare (GB) of Stevenage.
The two acquisitions are RRM of Atherstone, near Tamworth, and De-Pack, of Burton on the Wold near Loughborough.
All five specialise in chemical and hazardous waste disposal and PHS says the shared expertise, experience and quality will enable the group to focus more intensely in that field. Clare Noble, Wastemanagement’s managing director, said: “The new division will enable us to sharpen up the value we offer in the hazardous and chemical waste market and will give us much greater definition.
“It will also build on the high quality and qualifications of our sales and operations staff, broaden our range of service and support our overall drive to be the UK’s specialist supplier of choice.”
