Fridge Freezer Recycling and White Goods Recycling

Pure Planet Recycling offers a fridge freezer recycling service. We can collect and recycle both domestic sized and industrial sized fridges and freezers and ensure they are recycled in accordance with the hazardous waste regulations 2005. Please contact us to book a collection.

Once collected, the equipment will be taken to a fridge freezer processing plant where all the hazardous components are removed and properly treated.

In 2002 there were European regulations bought into force that state that the insulation foam found inside a fridge has to be removed to prevent the release of chemicals known as Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS).

ODS include CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) and HCFCs (hydrochlorofluorocarbons), both of which, if released into the environment, destroy the ozone in the atmosphere. The ozone layer protects the Earth from the sun's harmful ultra-violet rays that cause global warming and skin cancer. CFCs and HCFCs were used in the coolant systems and insulation foam of refrigeration units up until the mid-1990s. Appliances made before this time will still contain the gases and therefore need to be disposed of properly.

White Goods Recycling

Pure Planet Recycling also offers the service of white goods recycling to businesses of all sizes. From washing machine recycling, oven recycling to tumble dryer recycling, our recycling service ensures the white good is recycled to component level for material reuse in manufacturing.
