Packaging steel recycling in the UK

Corus Steel Packaging Recycling (CSPR), our UK centre of expertise on steel recycling located in Troste Works Llanelli, has been at the forefront of the recycling drive. Through CSPR we actively contribute to Government-supported recycling programmes.

Corus is the largest steel recycler in the UK. Our focus remains on the domestic waste stream, and on recycling more of the 500 million cans (500,000 tonnes of steel) that result from it, via our CanRoute centres. We believe that more multi-material kerbside collection is required to achieve the Government target. Our objective is to ensure that our customers get the best possible steel recycling deals, with high recycling levels and low recycling costs.

We assist over 40 local authorities with their steel can recycling initiatives, and participate in around 275 regional steel packaging recycling schemes. Our commitment to our customers, and all those in the packaging chain who use steel, springs from our belief in the excellent recyclability of our product and our desire to communicate this effectively.
