Axil Integrated Services sees 100% Growth

Corby-based Axil Integrated Services are celebrating the hire of their 100^th employee, following a year that saw the waste management company grow by 100%, with revenue jumping from £11m to £22m. The company is on track to deliver significant growth in the coming year.

Axil work with several household names including Whirlpool, Birds Eye, McLaren, and LEVC – the makers of the iconic black cab. The company also supported the rollout of rapid testing by providing waste services to several Covid testing sites across the UK.

Axil helps businesses work towards zero waste by eliminating waste in their facilities, encouraging re-use, reducing manual handling, and increasing recycling rates.

Most companies generate cardboard packaging, plastic and food waste – and some also deal with valuable materials like metals and cooking oil.

Axil can reduce businesses waste management costs by passing value from recycled materials back to the customer. In some instances, the revenue from waste rebates will total more than the cost of the waste services provided.

Axil regularly reviews the market to give customers the best value on materials and helps them work towards cost reductions through efficient waste management processes.

Ed Pigg, Managing Director at Axil Integrated Services, said:

“We’re delighted with the growth in our business. The Environmental aspect within ESG is becoming a priority for many businesses. The UK Government is targeting a 65 per cent municipal recycling rate by 2035, so waste segregation must be the focus for any proactive waste partner. We’re working with a number of dynamic, forward-looking companies to help them achieve zero waste while reducing their operating costs.”

David Sherrington, UK & Ireland Energy, Environmental, Health & Safety Manager at Whirlpool, said:
“Axil has been key to Whirlpool achieving Zero Waste to Landfill at both our HQ and Yate Factory. We outlined our needs, and the Axil team used all their skills and experience to ensure that we followed the waste hierarchy. That meant not just avoiding waste to landfill but actively seeking out better ways to then recycle – and doing so in a way that produced a better quality of waste stream whilst driving down costs for the whole operation.”
