With waste increasingly recognised as a resource, WRc works with waste producers, waste contractors and recyclers to gain maximum value from waste and to deliver innovative, sustainable waste management solutions.
Our track record is based upon over 30 years of working alongside clients as a research based consultancy to manage waste and to improve resource efficiency through reuse, recovery and recycling. We also have in-house (UKAS accredited) workshops and waste testing facilities that deal with all types of organic and inorganic wastes and treatment residuals.
