Enva has announced the acquisition of Associated Reclaimed Oils Ltd (ARO) for an undisclosed sum.
London-based ARO is a long-established collector of waste lubricant oils and hazardous wastes, offering services to the market through London and South East England.
The business collects around 10 million litres of used lubricants per annum, as well as a range of hazardous garage wastes.
Acquisitions
This is the latest in a string of acquisitions for recycling and recovery services provider, Enva, which has been expanding its operations in the UK market.
Last December, the company announced the acquisition of leading waste wood processing business Hadfield Wood Recyclers, which followed that of waste management businesses GP Green Recycling Limited, William Tracey, Wastecycle and Blue Sky Plastics Recycling.
The ARO business will be rebranded as Enva and fully integrated into Enva’s existing waste oil collection and processing business.
‘Perfect fit’
Commenting on the acquisition, Michael Sneath, director at Enva, said: “ARO’s service offering is a perfect fit with our existing oil business in the UK. ARO bring their 45 years of experience and knowledge to Enva, and strengthen our collection network in the South East of England.
