Recycling Waste
Green Waste into Rich Organic Compost

- Cools the root zone of plants which lowers transpiration of moisture from the plant.
- Builds soil structure and adds nutrients (fertilizer is still recommended).
- Aids micro-organisms that are beneficial to plants and soil.

Wood Waste
Barwicks is recycling wood waste into products which in turn is creating a positive impact on the environment.
This is the process of turning waste timber into environmentally friendly products. Timber waste is diverted from landfill and recycled as furnace fuel and ultimately benefiting the environment.
We process timber waste from all commercial and industrial sectors including the transport sector, building trade suppliers, ship building, cabinet making, construction and demolition companies.
Starting by Mulching with the 1050hp CBI mulcher the timber waste is then transported to our processing facility at Boyer for further processing through our wood waste screening plant. The timber waste is then screened, re shredded and passing through a magnet before the final product is produced.
