two.1.4) Short description

Lancashire Renewables Ltd (LRL) is a company owned wholly by Lancashire County Council and Blackpool Council. LRL operates two waste treatment facilities in Leyland and Thornton. Each site is approximately 40 acres and contains numerous buildings responsible for the receival and processing of household and residual waste (circa 400,000 tonnes p.a.). Waste is either transported into the offtake market for further processing/ recycling or to landfill when necessary. LRL's key objectives are to receive, treat and transport contract waste in accordance with the targets and service requirements set out in the Service Level Agreement between LRL and Lancashire County Council.

As part of its day-to-day operations, LRL uses a baler (Bollegraaf HBC80) to compress waste material into blocks (bales) which are then secured by steel baling wire. The bales are subsequently transported on pallets by road to be further processed, such as metals, paper, and plastics that will be recycled. LRL purchases approximately 100 tonnes of steel baling wire per annum and these are currently delivered to its site based in Leyland (PR26 6TB).
