ESG - Senator Shane Cassells pays tribute to Turmec team for leading charge on circular economy

Portfolio company Turmec was delighted to welcome Minister of State for the Gaeltacht Jack Chambers, Senator Shane Cassells and Cllr. Mike Bray Meath County Council - to catch a glimpse of their manufacturing facility in Rathcairn Co Meath. The visit was co-ordinated by Údarás na Gaeltachta which is the regional authority responsible for the economic, social and cultural development of the Gaeltacht.

 

Turmec designs, manufactures and installs recycling plants all over the world from its base in Ireland. The business is currently finalising one of the world’s largest construction & demolition (C&D) recycling plants in Sydney, Australia. Once complete, the plant will be able to process up to 7,000 tonnes of brick, concrete, timber, metal and other recyclable materials a day. Using vibrating screens, air density separators, magnets and optical sorting equipment, the facility aims to recover up to 90% of the materials it processes.
