Putting secondary materials first
Renewi plc Annual Report and Accounts 2023
We are
Renewi
We are a waste-to-product company and a leader in sustainability, operating at the heart of the circular economy. As pure-play recyclers, our core purpose is to give new life to used materials.
Every day we help our customers progress towards their net-zero emission goals. We do this by creating secondary materials with a lower carbon footprint than the primary resources they replace. We help our customers help the planet.
What we do matters
The world has realised the transition to clean energy alone is not enough to meet the climate challenges we face. Circular economies, through resource preservation and reduced reliance on incineration and landfill, play a vital role in slowing climate change.
Building on a legacy of more than
100 years, the work we do at Renewi brings us one step closer to a cleaner, more sustainable world.
Secondary material Commercial Waste NL, compost made from organic waste material, used to fertilize and enrich soil
