Why Community Matters at CRJ
At CRJ Services, community is not separate from our business - it is part of it. For over 25 years, we’ve built our reputation on long-term relationships, trusted partnerships and investing in the people around us. When local skills develop, when young people are given opportunities, and when communities are supported, the entire sector benefits.
That’s why we invest our time, resources and energy into initiatives that create lasting impact - from developing apprentices and supporting grassroots organisations to organising and taking part in charity fundraisers that matter to our team. Whether it’s backing industry events, supporting local causes or raising money for charities close to home, we believe in contributing in ways that are meaningful and consistent.
Our Impact in Numbers
CRJ Employees spent over 1384 hours volunteering for different charities or initiative's, with 70% of staff using their voluntary days which CRJ provide.
From CRJ hosted events, our team has proudly raised over £10,000 annually to support charities, community, and meaningful causes.
Over 70 team members actively participate in at least one community or charity initiative, showing our commitment goes beyond words.
Business Beyond Our Four Walls
"Community has always been part of how CRJ operates. We’re proud of the work we do commercially, but we’re just as proud of the support we give to apprentices, local initiatives and charitable causes. If you’re building a long-term business, you have to think beyond your own four walls. For us, contributing to the industry and the communities around us is simply part of doing things properly."
Ali Wennell, HR and Business Support Manager, CRJ
More Than Machinery
While CRJ Services is known across the UK for supplying and supporting specialist recycling, forestry and waste processing equipment, our business is built on far more than machines. Behind every project is a team of engineers, operators, technicians, sales specialists and support staff who are passionate about helping customers keep their operations moving efficiently and sustainably.
CRJ provides complete solutions backed by decades of industry experience. With one of the largest specialist workshop teams in the sector and strong partnerships with globally recognised manufacturers including JENZ, HAAS, Pronar, Bruce and TANA, we continue to invest in innovation, training and long-term customer relationships to ensure we deliver value, not just through equipment, but through the people and expertise behind it.
