Turmec Secures £15 Million Glasgow MRF Contract

Turmec is proud to announce our latest contract win, a £15 million project with Glasgow City Council to design and build a cutting-edge Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) at Easter Queenslie. Set to process up to 50,000 tonnes of recyclable household waste annually, the facility will feature advanced automation, including AI-driven optical sorters and robotic technology. Backed by £17 million in funding from the Scottish Government’s Recycling Improvement Fund, this project will significantly reduce emissions and support Glasgow’s sustainability goals. Completion is expected in early 2027.

Turmec at the Powerday Engineering Futures Event

At Turmec, we believe in building more than recycling solutions, we’re helping build the future. That’s why we were proud to support Powerday’s Engineering Futures event at Old Oak Sidings, where T-Level Engineering students from Stanmore College got hands on insights into the world of waste recovery.

Turmec’s Gavin Dunne joined industry workshops, showcasing how automation, innovation, and sustainability come together in real-world recycling solutions. It’s ESG in action, and a powerful reminder that a greener future starts with the next generation. 

Simple Recycling

National Let's Recycle Conference

On Thursday, 3rd of July, we attended at the National Let’s Recycle Conference in the stunning Landmark London, proud to be an event sponsor and part of the conversation shaping the future of recycling in the UK.  This year’s spotlight was on Simpler Recycling, a bold step toward streamlining household and commercial waste processes nationwide. At Turmec, we’re ready to help make that vision a reality with cutting-edge automation, with improved recovery rates, and scalable solutions that future-proof operations and support compliance.

Watch this space……..Big things are happening behind the scenes right now – the team is on the ground putting the final touches on a brand new plant build that’s about to go live very soon.
