The company, which provides demolition, recycling and skip hire services across the east of the country, said the wash plant will be used to clean and sort raw materials such as sand and gravel, removing contaminants and impurities.

According to Sun Environmental Services, the facility has the capacity to wash 100,000 tons of material per year. The investment has also enabled the employment of nine new staff members.

Materials produced at the plant are intended for sale to the construction industry for use in applications including block making, pipe bedding, drainage, concrete, road laying, and impermeable linings.

Mat Stewart, Director at Sun Environmental Services, said: “We’re incredibly grateful to the team at HSBC UK for supporting us as we look to grow the business. The funding will enable us to improve our services, and has allowed us to expand our workforce, resulting in the employment of nine new members of staff.”

Neil Hoskins, Relationship Director at HSBC UK, said: “We are proud to support the team at Sun Environmental Services to grow the business while reducing the volume of waste sent to landfill where possible and creating new jobs.”
