In 2012 BPR Group invested in a brand new Material Recycling Facility. The new facility has enabled BPR Group to internalise all their customers comingled fibre waste. BPR can provide their customers with a guarantee that all their office waste is being treated to the highest European standards. The facility enables BPR Group to divert 100% of their incoming material from landfill.

Alison Roe, Director for BPR Group: “The installation of the O.Kay Engineering MRF at our

site in Purbeck has not only given Paper Round the ability to process more material, it has

also enabled us to achieve a higher environmental standard in the products we produce.

BPR Group have been pioneers in recycling over the last 20years and we look forward to

continuing this trend with the help of the MRF built for us by O.Kay Engineering.”

Bill Swan, Managing Director for BPR Group: “Investing in this MRF was the sin-gle biggest investment decision we’ve ever made in the history of the company. We approached it with really great care. We started with 4 suppliers and nar-rowed it down to two. We choose O.Kay Engineering in the end because although they were not the cheapest supplier we felt they offered the best value for money and they put the most effort into understanding our requirement as a business.”
