Built on more than 20 years of experience, Zorbatek ensures materials are handled with the highest standards of safety and care, providing a trusted and dependable processing solution. Having invested more than £5m into a state-of-the-art processing facility, the business combines advanced technology and in-house engineering expertise with a fast-moving, flexible approach.
ISO9001 accredited, Zorbatek is committed to continuous improvement, rigorous quality standards and tackling challenging material streams. The business continues to innovate, investing in research and development to meet the rapidly evolving needs of its customers, as well as to maximise recovery rates and material purity.
Roy Bellis, site manager at Zorbatek, commented: “Every year, more than 25,000 tonnes of zorba scrap is produced in the UK. We specialise in taking this material and turning it into a valuable product. After all, Zorba contains a high percentage of reusable metal, including aluminium. If businesses like ours didn’t exist, these materials would be landfilled despite being 100% recyclable.
“With ambitious plans to scale into a 24/7 aluminium processing operation, we are scaling both our workforce and technical capability. Joining Alupro will provide a unique platform to engage with customers and suppliers, as well as allowing us to be part of the wider material supply chain conversation.”
Tom Giddings, Alupro’s Executive Director, added: “We’re delighted to welcome Zorbatek as our newest member. It not only demonstrates the company’s commitment to engaging with new audiences, but also its ambition to communicate the important role of investing in processes that help maximise recycling in tomorrow’s circular economy.
“Companies like Zorbatek are very important innovators who play a key role in recycling the more specialised aluminium packaging waste streams. We look forward to exploring the ways in which we can work together and make a real difference to the supply chain.”
