'''Integrated Recycling Solutions at Scale'''

Timberpak Pearce is a leading UK recycling and resource management company delivering high-performance, resilient recycling services to local authorities and commercial partners. Operating from its purpose-built facility in St Albans, Hertfordshire, the company combines large-scale mixed dry recycling processing with specialist wood recycling, underpinned by direct end-market integration through being part of the wider Egger Timberpak UK organisation.

As part of this integrated structure, Timberpak Pearce occupies a unique position within the UK recycling sector, combining advanced Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) capability with secure wood recycling routes linked directly to UK manufacturing.

'''Large-Scale Recycling & Materials Recovery Operations'''

{{MRFEAIn|Permit={{#var:epr}}}}

At the heart of Timberpak Pearce’s operations is its fully permitted, high-capacity Materials Recovery Facility in St Albans. The facility processes in excess of 100,000 tonnes of mixed dry recycling each year, handling kerbside-collected materials from multiple local authorities contracts.

The MRF is engineered for efficiency, resilience and high material recovery. It operates with advanced mechanical and optical sorting technology, multiple weighbridges for operational redundancy, and 24-hour capability to provide flexibility during peak periods. The site incorporates secondary processing capacity, allowing continuous throughput even during maintenance activity or seasonal surges.

Timberpak Pearce applies a “recover-first” philosophy to all incoming material. Loads are assessed, monitored and processed with the objective of maximising recyclable output while maintaining strict compliance with regulatory and contractual standards. Integrated sampling, weighbridge reconciliation and digital data systems provide complete traceability from receipt through to final recycling destination.

The scale of the St Albans operation, combined with the experience gained from servicing multiple local authority contracts, positions Timberpak Pearce as a major integrated recycling operator rather than a single-stream processor. The coexistence of high-volume mixed dry recycling and wood recycling within one strategically managed facility reinforces operational resilience and market stability.

=== Specialist Wood Recycling with Direct End-Market Security ===

Timberpak Pearce is firmly established as one of the UK’s leading wood recycling specialists, operating alongside its Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) activities. The business delivers secure, fully compliant recycling services to both municipal authorities and commercial operators, processing substantial volumes of waste wood each year.

The St Albans facility alone handles approximately 50,000 tonnes of waste wood annually. This forms part of Timberpak’s wider national network, which collectively processes around 400,000 tonnes per annum. Crucially, the recovered material is retained within the UK supply chain and reprocessed into raw material for domestic manufacturing.

Following processing, the recycled wood is supplied directly to EGGER’s UK manufacturing facilities in Hexham, Northumberland, and Barony, Scotland, where it is used in the production of new wood-based panel products. By keeping recovered fibre within the UK, Timberpak supports a closed-loop recycling system that diverts material from disposal and contributes to the manufacture of sustainable, value-added products within the national circular economy.

Wood recycling capacity in the UK is constrained by a limited number of genuine large-scale end markets. Nationwide, only four chipboard manufacturing facilities provide true recycling outcomes at scale, two of which are owned by the EGGER Group. As part of EGGER Timberpak UK, Timberpak Pearce is directly integrated with this manufacturing infrastructure, providing a secure domestic outlet for the material it processes and reinforcing a resilient, UK-based circular model.

This integration removes the dependency on third-party supply contracts that many operators must negotiate to secure end-market access. Instead, compliant wood received by Timberpak Pearce is recycled directly into new chipboard products within Egger’s UK manufacturing plants.

The operational advantage of this structure is considerable. It provides customers with long-term security of recycling capacity, insulation from market volatility, and complete transparency over end-destination outcomes. Timberpak Pearce does not rely on brokers or mass-balance reporting models; it operates within a vertically integrated structure where the recycling outlet is part of the same organisational group.

Strict waste acceptance procedures, contamination management controls and full material traceability ensure that compliant wood is recycled efficiently, with zero landfill outcomes for recyclable material.

=== '''Integrated Logistics & Operational Resilience''' ===

Timberpak Pearce supports its recycling operations through a combination of specialist haulage providers and its own HGV fleet. This blended logistics model provides flexibility, capacity and operational control across multiple contracts and material streams. This results in an extensive UK reach allowing Timberpak Pearce to effectively service local authority contracts at significant distance.

Specialist haulage partners are engaged under structured service agreements, with performance and safety standards aligned to Timberpak Pearce’s operational requirements. At the same time, the company operates its own fleet of heavy goods vehicles, allowing direct management of transport capacity and enabling rapid response during peak periods or unforeseen disruption.

The St Albans facility itself is designed around resilience. On-site storage capacity provides buffering during fluctuations in inbound or outbound material flow. Redundant weighbridge systems and integrated engineering capability ensure that processing operations remain continuous. The co-location of wood and mixed dry recycling streams enhances operational flexibility, allowing the site to absorb variations in tonnage without compromising service reliability.

Access to additional capacity within the wider Timberpak network further strengthens this resilience, ensuring continuity of service across both material streams.{{MRFEAIn|Permit={{#var:epr}}}}
