What We Buy
Turn Your Waste into Revenue
Our purchasing team make sure the buying process is as easy as possible, allowing your business to turn your plastic waste into additional revenue.
We buy bulk loads of plastic, diverting it away from landfill and put it through re-processing. We have clients throughout the UK such as distribution centres, warehouses, manufacturers and waste management companies that we reliably collect their plastic waste from.
Our strict processes ensure that there is full visibility and traceability of all the plastic waste we buy. All commodities collected are ethically and sustainably reused with start to finish paperwork to prove your plastic waste has been responsibly recycled.
We re-process a wide range of plastic including:
Polypropylene (PP)
Plastics made up of PP (polypropylene) is a one of the most commonly used plastic and can be found in daily applications including items such as fruit crates, buckets, pallets, pots and many more including production waste lumps, purge. Whether you have redundant trays, baskets or scrap PP, GK Recycling will buy your PP scrap to be reused in manufacturing.
High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
High density polyethylene is a stronger heavier plastic and is used a wide range of applications due to its durability. These are most commonly found in items such as pipes, road traffic barriers, bins, detergent bottles, milk bottles etc. HDPE can be highly recycled and here at GK recycling we will buy your HDPE scrap regardless of its form.
Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE)
Low density polyethylene (LDPE) is commonly used for shrink wrap, grocery bags and other clear film packaging/wraps. LDPE waste is most commonly found in distribution centres, warehouses, food manufacturers, supermarkets and cash & carries, here at GK Recycling we can offer a complete LDPE recycling Service, we will your buy LDPE waste waste at competitive rates.
Rigid Plastic
Rigid plastics are commonly made up of PP/HDPE, when they are mixed together commonly they are difficult to process and recycle due to the complexity of the separation process. We have been processing rigids in both mixed and segregated forms for the last decade working with local authorities and waste management companies we can offer a complete mixed rigid recycling solution.

PET is commonly found in the use of bottle applications, PET can be 100% recycled without ever reaching a landfill. GK Recycling can offer complete a PET recycling whether they are PET bottles, trays, film etc. Contact us to find out more about our PET recycling services.
