Pakawaste celebrates an excellent 2018

Preston-based, waste management and compactor handling specialists, Pakawaste Ltd., is celebrating following another excellent year of business. Throughout 2018, they continued to grow the business, as demand increases for its cost effective and environmentally-effective waste management solutions.

Continuing the positive growth into 2019, Pakawaste recently sold six waste management compactors on dolly systems and two portable compactors for one of the first residential developments in the heart of the UK financial industry, Canary Wharf. They fought off stiff national competition to be awarded the contract by the Canary Wharf Group, to provide an innovative and bespoke, Wi-Fi enabled, underground waste compaction system on rails.

David Hamer, CEO, Pakawaste, said: “This recent contract win is another great example of how Pakawaste is delivering its growth strategy, throughout 2018 and into 2019.

“As a result of our continued growth across the business, we are actively recruiting for more fabricators, welders, electricians and hydraulic system engineers, as well as looking to establish several manufacturing apprenticeships.

“Pakawaste is committed to supporting our local community and helping them develop their skill base, particularly as engineers for the future. We are making excellent use of the apprenticeship levy and working in partnership with our local university, UCLan, to help educate and train our people to degree level.”
