AWE wins award for waste management

AWE has been recognized for its adoption of a pioneering waste metal treatment programme.

The company received the Vanguard Award for Metal Treatment at the Integrated Waste Management Conference in Cumbria.

AWE’s Geoff Druce said: “I was delighted to accept the Vanguard Award, on behalf of AWE, in recognition for our role as an integral player in taking up the metal treatment service. I am extremely proud of the AWE team’s achievement.

“By working closely with our partner, we were able to demonstrate that the service worked effectively from end to end; was safe to operate; returned metal to the supply chain and minimized the volume of waste committed for disposal. It has made a fantastic – and very valuable – contribution to improving waste management and in achieving the strategic aims of the UK Low Level Waste Strategy.”
