PMG Wins Bristol Environmental Business of the Year Award

It’s official! We are the most environmental business in Bristol. 

Managing Directors Patrick and Bernadette McGuinness, Workshop Manager Paul McGuiness, Operations Manager Stuart Knight and Accounts Supervisor Louise Gay all went to the Bristol Business Awards Dinner on Wednesday night.

We entered our state of the art recycling facility for the award which treats road sweeper residues and gully waste and despite stiff competition were delighted to hear our company’s name announced as the winner.

Judges were impressed by the fact that in 2015 PMG was instrumental in keeping 12,500 tons of road sweeping waste out of landfill and will be recycling and diverting from landfill a further 18,000 tons in 2016. The process separates the waste out into sand, graded aggregate and organic/plant waste and litter which is all then re-cycled enabling us to achieve ‘zero waste to landfill’.

It was a great night and we couldn’t be more proud of our achievement.

We have a brilliant team here at PMG and we’re looking forward to winning many more awards in the future.

PMG Services Named a Finalist in Bristol Business Awards

PMG’s significant contribution to protecting the environment has been recognised in this year’s Bristol Business Awards.

Our multi-million-pound specialist waste management plant in Bristol processes 18,000 tons of road sweeping and gully tanker waste. 100% of all materials are recycled with nothing going to landfill. We are one of very few companies in the UK to meet the Environment Agency’s approved quality protocol for end of waste criteria which means we can sell our sand and aggregate for re-use by construction companies in applications including pipe bedding and road building.

All of the organic material goes for onwards treatment where it is mixed with sewage sludge to make Non-Pas 100 compost. Oversize material and litter is sent on to a company who turns it into refuse derived fuel (RDF) which is used for power generation. 

We are one of four companies shortlisted for the Environmental Business Award and will find out who will lift the trophy at an awards dinner at Ashton Gate in Bristol on 29 June.

'New Addition to Our Tanker Fleet'

We have just invested in a new tanker to expanded our existing fleet of Vacuum/Jetting tankers. 
 

Our New addition is a HUWER Recycling, Deep Suction, Jetting tanker. This vehicle is able to jet and clean for longer without the need to stop and fill up with water. The tanker filters and reuses the water that it sucks up and recycles it through the jetting pump thus enabling the unit to work for longer periods. The tanker also has a liquid ring vacuum that enables it to carryout deep suction work in wells and sewers. See specification below: 

·         Liquid ring suction capability to depths of 100 metres.

·         Horizontal suction pull up to 1000 metres.

·         Hydraulic boom arm for deep lifting work.

·         Moveable centre plate to allow variable capacity for jet cleaning water and drawn waste.

·         150mm diameter inlet and outlet valves.

·         Tipping tank to ease the disposal of solids.

·         Up to 120 gallons per minute at 3000 psi jetting capacity.

·         Recycling dirty water to use as jetting water when cleaning tanks, drains and sewers.
