MESSAGE FROM THE M A N A G I N G D I R E CTO R “For the past 30 years, we have challenged the norms, finding new ways that not only improve processes, but also create useful products that can be used and reused over and over again. ResourceCo is not just a value taker, but a value maker.”

The pillars of our business serve the market sectors that exist, but we have also seen that the cross fertilisation of ideas between pillars and their clients has charted new territories - we are determined with partners, to invest and prosper from those ideas. The reason we exist is not only climate change. Our purpose is sustainable resource recovery by a sustainable business. Along the way what we’ve discovered is that our very responses to the resources we have collected have presented opportunities to change the nature of business practices and introduce new technologies. We are determined to be a contributor by changing what is acceptable in order to benefit the planet, discarding nothing but outmoded practices.

Not one individual or conglomerate that prospers from our planet can continue to use the Earth’s valuable resources and not account for that. That doesn’t mean the end of business as such, it means using the resources we require in a smarter way. To continue on that path requires reusing the resources that are not ‘totally’ spent, bringing them into a useful second and third life as well as re-evaluating our requirement from virgin resources as well. It’s a huge task, but we know that to be sustainable, is to prosper and re-invent our collective future.”

“WE SEE WASTE AS A PRODUCT”
