METAL INTERESTS LIMITED WINS ITS SECOND QUEEN'S AWARD!

21st April 2011

The West Sussex based family-owned specialist metal recycling company, trading since 1993 and currently employing 48 personnel, first achieved this prestigious Award in 2007 and has continued its growth in export earnings by 200% in spite of the recession, exports making up 67% of its total trading activities during the period.  The Company has consolidated its trading relationships with the EU, China, India, Hong Kong, Pakistan, Taiwan, USA and the UAE and in addition it has created new business partnerships with companies in Austria, Australia, Japan, South Korea, Indonesia and Thailand.

 

In the UK, Metal Interests continues to trade in material both for the national and international market mostly processing through its two depots, in Leeds and in Coventry where the Company handles material specifically for the aircraft industry. 

 

The Company was founded on a passion for the benefits of recycling to society and the environment and during 2009 Roger Brewster, the Managing Director and past President of the BSMA (now BMRA), originated and developed a study with Imperial College and the BIR on the merits of metal recycling in terms of conservation of global resources and the minimisation of CO2 emissions. This study was launched in Monaco, endorsed by Lord Stern of Brentford and presented at the Environmental conference in Copenhagen, following on from Kyoto.

 

The Directors are extremely proud of the fact that the workforce has been increased in real terms during the past three years since the previous Award including the addition of representatives in Europe and Thailand and wish to thank all their Staff for their unstinting hard work and commitment during the past few difficult years. 

 

This Award is an award for everyone in the Company as recognition of the dedication shown by all.
