As we approach the end of 2024, it’s a great time to look back at the exciting and impactful year we’ve had at Oil Recoveries. Here’s a glimpse of what we’ve accomplished:
Exhibitions & Events: Our team was on the road attending and exhibiting at eight major events throughout the year, including the UK Concrete Show (March), UKIFDA (liquid fuels) and MACH (April), the UK Garage and Bodyshop Show and a sunny Hillhead (June). We also participated in the Global Goals Sustainability event (September), Advanced Engineering UK (October) and Mechanex in Surrey (November), sharing all the different ways we can help businesses. It was fantastic connecting with so many professionals across all the different industries we support – automotive, marine, industrial, construction, aviation, rail and haulage. We’re excited to meet even more of you at upcoming events in 2025 – stay tuned on our social media for details!
Innovation in Automotive: 2024 saw the launch of our Automotive App, designed to simplify waste collection for garages nationwide. This innovation is already making a significant impact in streamlining services for our automotive clients.
Marine Growth: Our Marine division has thrived this year, with key milestones including becoming Executive Members of Mersey Maritime and being invited to the prestigious Maritime Industry Awards in October. We’re proud of the progress we’ve made and look forward to continued growth in this sector.
Alliances: we’ve actively joined several other relevant industry organisations which are all listed here.
Community Support: At Oil Recoveries, we’re committed to supporting our local community. This year, we raised funds for Cancer Research UK and Alder Hey, through sponsored runs and climb of Mount Snowden. We also sponsored a youth football team and engaged with local business students at our local College.
Sustainability Efforts: We completed several large sustainable projects, including a unique dismantling project in Manchester following an Environment Agency response, highlighting our expertise in complex waste management. Our drivers worked across the UK to collect and ensure the re-refinement of millions of litres of waste oil and recycling waste, actively contributing to the circular economy. We will be publishing our latest total carbon savings report imminently on our website.
Looking Ahead: As we reflect on a year full of achievements, we’d like to thank all our customers and team members who’ve played an integral role in our journey. We’re excited for what 2025 will bring as we continue to grow and innovate. Here’s to another successful year ahead!
