Addfield ... gathering its team in preparation to build the facility.
UK group to build Kuwait waste-to-energy plant
01 March 2020
UK-based Addfield Environmental Systems said it has been awarded a major contract by a Kuwaiti group to set up a waste-to-energy plant in the country. Construction work on the mammoth project will begin later this month.
The largest waste recycling operator in Kuwait is expanding its operation with the addition of a new, specifically-designed facility developed exclusively for the safe destruction of clinical waste, said the company. It is designed to process up to 1,000 kg of material per hour through a fully automated stepped hearth incinerator.
The customer had selected Addfield after reviewing other manufacturers from England, France, Germany, and the US due to its established reputation in this arena for delivering consistently high-quality solutions for many large incineration facilities internationally, said a company spokesman.
As the final stages of the project are formalised, Addfield is beginning to gather its team in preparation for the build of an impressive multi-million-dollar clinical waste-to-energy facility for its customer in Kuwait, he stated.
Construction on the project was due to begin late last month at Addfield’s dedicated facility in the heart of Britain in Staffordshire before being completed on-site in Kuwait later in the year, he added.
On the contract win, business development director James Grant said: “This is another fantastic project for us to work on following the success we have seen with installations of this scale in the UK and Europe. Landing another project, which will be starting soon, is recognition not just of the quality of work that we deliver at Addfield but also of the confidence that ‘Made in Britain’ label still carries esteem around the world.
“We are really proud to be starting the new year in such a great position. This is just the first of many projects we are looking at in this region and we are very proud of the quality of work of our team.”
