Awards

This prestigious national awards programme recognises innovation and excellence within the waste management sector. Paper Round's IT Asset Disposal service was recognised as a finalist in 2015.

Paper Round won silver in the 2012 Zero Waste Awards. These awards celebrate companies efforts in the zero waste movement. The company won the award due to our closed loop recycling schemes and zero to landfill policies.

Run by ‘Lets Recycle’ the awards assess companies based on their efforts to divert waste from landfill, to either be recycled, reused or turned into energy through incineration or anaerobic digestion.

Paper Round won a top prize at the 2011 prestigious Business Commitment to the Environment (BCE) Environmental Leadership Awards ceremony in London. The Company won the SME Premier Award for its comprehensive Environmental Management System (EMS). Results included a 92% recycling rate, 100% diversion of waste from landfill and a reduction in electricity use at its warehouse by 30%.

Founded by Sir Peter Parker in 1975, the BCE Awards scheme is one of the world’s longest-running environmental competitions. It celebrates businesses that an independent judging panel recognises as meeting the commercial demands of the present without compromising the environment.

In 2011 Paper Round was highly commended in two of the City Sustainability Awards categories, Tackling Climate Change and Environmental Management in SMEs. It is a great honour to get recognition for our efforts from a such respected award. We will continue to work towards reducing environmental impact of our operations while helping our customers to manage their waste in the most sustainable way possible.

The Thames Gateway Business Awards reward entrepreneurial skills and the passion for success that exists across the Thames Gateway area.

The judges said they had chosen Paper Round because of our thorough approach to improving our environmental performance and for our staff engagement.
