Shredall SDS Group to expand with new Scottish depot
SHREDALL SDS Group, the largest independently owned confidential waste shredding and paper recycling company in the UK, has opened a new state-of-the-art depot in Bellshill. The new 17,000 sq ft depot will
serve as Shredall SDS Group’s regional hub and help it extend the reach of its shredding, recycling, and scanning services to a rapidly growing client base in Scotland. The site will also support the organisation’s environmental pledge by growing its innovative paper cup recycling service. The depot will allow the group to
provide textile, uniform, media and hard drive shredding both onsite and offsite, which the business estimates will see its annual revenue double in Scotland in the next financial year. Shredall SDS Group has consistently
expanded its operations in Scotland since its first depot opened in 2007. This latest investment will see four new hires to operate its machinery, and another three new office staff, with the team set to double in size by January 2020.

Innovative chauffeur drive firm disposes of plastic water bottles
CHAUFFEUR drive business Little’s is leading the way in environmental innovation by being the first to introduce a single use plastic ban in all its chauffeur-driven cars.
Little’s is replacing all plastic bottled water with CanO Water, an infinitely recyclable alternative to single use plastic. CanO Water cans are made of aluminium
which contains more recycled substances than any other drinks packaging. The cans offer resealable ring pulls, providing convenience for their clients and preventing waste. Little’s move to ‘green’ water will double purchasing costs, however this will not result in additional costs for its customers. The company wants to make a statement to all its
clients and industry peers that they must work together as a community and do more to reduce the transport industry’s environmental footprint. It believes that it must build on its current ‘eco’ standard which has led to 40 per cent of its vehicles in Scotland being hybrid. 2019 has been a record-breaking year as the
company has seen turnover increase by 34 per cent, with profits up by over 35 per cent. Little’s has been crowned ‘Business of the Year’ twice, at both the Scottish Women’s Awards and the Women’s Enterprise Scotland Awards.
