Recycling firm secures new contract with local authority, creates jobs

A Hartlepool-based recycling company will create multiple new jobs after securing a three-year deal with a local authority, a recent news report in the local media has been able to reveal.

J&B Recycling will now process an extra 20,000 tonnes of recyclable materials each year, in addition to the 120,000 tonnes of waste they were already handling, from household, commercial, industrial and construction sources with customers including car parts manufacturer Nifco UK, Camerons Brewery and a number of community buildings, pubs and restaurants.

Mark Penny, commercial manager at J&B Recycling, said: "We put the tender in when we knew the previous contract was drawing to a close, and we were delighted that Sunderland City Council opted to work with us.

"It is always encouraging to secure new business. It shows the reputation we have built within J&B Recycling is a very good one, and it is an added bonus that this contract has enabled us to create three new positions."
