XPO Logistics to play a key role in European recycling support

19 January 2017/Categories: CILT, Industry News, Freight Forwarding, Logistics & Supply Chain


Eurokey Recycling, a leading multinational recycling services provider, has contracted with XPO Logistics to handle the transport component of its waste management operations from the United Kingdom to Poland. 

XPO Logistics will use its fleet to transport multiple loads of waste per week for the Leicester-headquartered company, ensuring timely segregation and reprocessing. The company’s services will include the management of timed deliveries and pickups from ports, distribution centres, consolidation points, retail centres and other Eurokey customer sites. XPO will dedicate 15 additional trailers in situ at key collection points to ensure capacity. 

Waste management is a growing sector in Europe, requiring rapid scalability and flexibility of processing services. By contracting with XPO, Eurokey gains the resources of a global footprint, international expertise, and multilingual capabilities to support its growth objectives. 

Martin Hannigan, international full truckload director at XPO Logistics in the UK, said: “Eurokey sought an immediate and highly reliable logistics solution. Our extensive expertise in this area, and our operational knowledge of the collection sites, meant that we were perfectly positioned to design and implement a tailored solution for Eurokey in a short time frame.”

Andrew Smith, Sales Director at Eurokey, said: “XPO Logistics’ reputation in the waste management space precedes them. They were our first port of call when we moved to strengthen our European supply chain. We are delighted to collaborate with such an experienced provider to ensure that our customers’ needs for recycled materials in manufacturing and production are met promptly.”
