Binn Group was established in 2001 by father and son John and Allan MacGregor as part of a land diversification project on their Binn Farm estate. Rapid growth has seen Binn Group expand beyond their original landfill provision, to become Scotland’s largest and most diverse independent waste management operation.
The array of services offered by Binn Group focuses on recycling, reuse, waste minimisation, landfill diversion and improving the environment. Binn operates a materials recycling facility where a wide variety of recyclable materials are separated, graded, baled, and sent to re-processors. As a result, over 86% of all the materials entering the facility are transformed into usable commodities. The remaining 14% is then processed into SRF (Solid Recovered Fuel), which generates electricity and power (avoiding use of fossil fuels) from the materials that would have otherwise gone to landfill.
“It has been great working with CRJ. As a contractor and operator themselves they understand the challenges we face with equipment downtime. In the rare occasion we have an issue, CRJ’s team remotely diagnose the issue and arrive promptly onsite with the experience to get us back up and running with minimal downtime.”
Stewart Smith – Operations Director at Binn Group Ltd.
