Sustainable Device Management Company Of The Month

Your Partner in Sustainable

Device Management

In this issue of Sustainability Today we have

featured Bamboo Connect as our Sustainable

Device Management Company of the Month.

Bamboo Connect is an international, independent

mobile phone distributor. Headquartered in

Waltham Abbey, Herts, with key service and

distribution centres in Europe and Asia, Bamboo

Connect distributes new and grade A products; as

well as offers fulfilment, salvage management and

recycling solutions to clients all over the world.

Established in 2009 as a mobile distribution

provider, today Bamboo Connect operates in

over 20 countries, supporting insurers, network

operators, retailers, manufacturers and banks

worldwide.

At its core, Bamboo Connect is on a mission to help

the world stay connected without adding to the

e-waste problem. Excessive e-waste is increasingly

becoming a growing crisis, with global electronic

waste projected to hit 82 million tonnes by 2030.

The company’s work is centred on insurance claims,

partnering with insurers to manage the entire

lifecycle of mobile devices after a claim is made.

That includes replacing devices quickly, repairing

and refurbishing where possible, reusing viable

components and recycling what’s left responsibly.

Bamboo Connect delivers end-to-end device

management solutions. The core of the business is

distribution of new and Grade A refurbished devices

worldwide, but the company also offers fulfillment

services with full logistics handling for efficient

returns and maximum value recovery. Its process

is powered by the company’s own SaaS platform,

Optima, which provides clients full visibility and

automation. From processing trade-ins to securely

wiping data and tracking the outcome of every

claim.

Adding value to products, Bamboo undertakes all

aspects of bespoke handset customisation with

a multitude of services ranging from language

variant flashing to the supply of product literature.

The company also repairs and refurbishes devices

to extend lifecycles, offering recycling solutions

that reduce landfill waste and recover valuable

components when devices are beyond repair.

Additionally Bamboo Connect offers claims

management and support for device insurance

providers across the globe.

As an established leader in second-hand device

grading standards, Bamboo Connect is renowned

for delivering top-quality second-hand devices

that consistently meet the highest benchmarks in

quality control and environmental responsibility.

of a device’s post-claim life, providing clients with a

complete, integrated solution.

Its Optima SaaS platform makes sustainability

measurable, offering real-time tracking, predictive

forecasting and compliance reporting so partners

can clearly demonstrate their ESG impact.

Combined with the company’s international reach

and strict environmental compliance, this ensures

clients receive solutions that are both reliable and

sustainably responsible.

Bamboo Connect also offers specialist international

consultancy to optimise salvage and fulfilment

operations. Using industry expertise

and data insights, it helps businesses

streamline logistics, cut costs, and

boost revenue. The company’s service

integrates with existing operations,

using intelligent salvage management

(ISM) and dynamic pricing to maintain

consistent costs and maximise value.

Bamboo Connect’s ISM solution is

designed to provide the best possible

levels of service, high levels of return

and total client visibility throughout the

process. Its online ISM platform has

been developed to allow customers to

have total visibility during the salvage

process, detailing and documenting

every stage of the operation and

keeping an audit trail in the form of recorded

information, such as stock lists, pricing matrices and

other communications during the job.

From a production perspective, Bamboo Connect

takes protecting personal data very seriously.

All devices are securely wiped to militarygrade

standards to ensure information is fully

safeguarded. The company’s goal is to show that

success can go hand-in-hand with responsibility to

people and to the planet.

Bamboo Connect also has proven logistical

expertise with customers in every continent across

the globe. This means the company can respond

and execute deliveries at short notice, earning them

the distinction of being one of the few distribution

businesses that can purchase, process and deliver

FedEx announces

switch from diesel to

HVO to reduce linehaul

emissions in UK

Federal Express Corporation,

the world’s largest express

transportation company, announces its

transition to using biofuels in linehaul

trucks at three UK sites as of this

month.

More than 170 trucks – all tractortrailer

combinations – will now refuel

with hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO)

across FedEx locations in Parkhouse

(80 tractors), Marston Gate (54

tractors), and Atherstone (38 tractors).

A two-year agreement with supplier

Crown Oil secures the purchase of at

least four million litres of fuel annually.

The change to HVO will deliver certified

lifecycle carbon emissions savings

of at least 80% compared to diesel

and is a way of reducing emissions in

heavy goods vehicle operations. FedEx

Express began using 100% HVO as a

direct ‘drop-in’ diesel alternative in

UK operations in October 2023. That

trial, along with a similar pilot in the

Netherlands, helped identify HVO as a

preferred option for FedEx’s European

road network.

“We’re excited the UK is the first

country where we can scale HVO in

our operations,” said James Richards,

Senior Manager Road Network

Operations UK, FedEx.

Under this agreement, 16 tugs at the

same three sites will also use HVO,

offering a favourable alternative to

diesel where electrification isn’t yet

practical.

KHS driving cut in carbon

emissions

With its

ambitious

climate protection

strategy, the KHS

Group is steadily

reducing carbon

emissions. A major

milestone is its

recent validation

by the Science-

Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Based

on this, KHS is now implementing

specific reduction measures.

Following SBTi confirmation of

shared goals with parent company

Salzgitter AG, KHS has set targets to

cut Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 36%

by 2028, and Scope 3 emissions by

20%. “Our responsibility goes beyond

our own production plants. We

supply our customers with holistic

solutions that measurably improve

their climate footprint,” says Kai

Acker, CEO of KHS GmbH.

The key: efficient and renewable

energies

KHS has switched to green electricity

at all German sites and is optimizing

Efficient heating,

lighting, and use

of waste heat are

already in place.

In Dortmund,

sensor-controlled

LED systems

reduce electricity

use. The vehicle

fleet is transitioning to electric,

and renewable energy is replacing

fossil fuels. Heating networks and

photovoltaic systems are planned at

German and international sites.

Innovations for more climatefriendly

production

KHS helps customers reduce

emissions through systems like the

InnoPET Blomax and Innopas SX,

and its Bottles & Shapes service

enables lightweight PET design.

Net zero by 2050

KHS aims for net zero by 2050, or

2045 for Scope 1 and 2 emissions.

Trailer Building Company Of The Month

Food Waste

Trailers Reimagined

I

n this issue of Sustainability Today, we are pleased to

feature Titan Trailers as our Trailer Building Company

of the Month.

‘Simpler Recycling’ will help deliver improved recycling

requirements in England. By ending the confusion over

what can and can’t be recycled, the legislation will

support both households and businesses to recycle

more and reach the Department for Environment, Food

and Rural Affairs’ recycling target of 65%, as part of the

government’s wider Resources and Waste Strategy.

Collectively, this should help to reduce contamination and

stimulate a recycled plastic market. All businesses and

other non-household premises with 10 or more full-time

equivalent employees (FTE) must separate plastic, paper

and card, glass, metals (cans, tins and foil) and food waste

from general waste, saving valuable resources from going

to waste and supporting the circular economy in the UK.

Implementation schedule

t Phase 1 came into effect on 31 March 2025: Mandatory

segregation and collection of dry recyclable materials

and food waste for businesses and non-household

premises with 10+ FTE in England.

t hase 2 comes into effect on 31 March 2026: Mandatory

segregation and collection of dry recyclable materials

and separate weekly food waste collections (which can

be combined with garden waste) for households.

t Phase 3 comes into effect on 31 March 2027:

Mandatory segregation and collection of dry recyclable

materials and food waste rolled out to businesses

and non-household premises with fewer than 10 FTE

in England.

t Plastic films, packaging and in-scope plastic bags to be

collected for businesses and households.

Changes to UK waste recycling regulations under the

banner ‘Simpler Recycling’ have seen leading UK trailer

builder Titan Trailers develop a range of new products

aimed at the rapidly expanding food waste recycling

market.

Alex Adams, Titan Trailers UK operations manager, explains

that the manufacturer’s major customers, the large

recycling and waste management firms, are looking to add

dedicated food waste collection vehicles to their fleets.

“We’re very fortunate in that probably currently about 60%

of our production is for the large corporates and they are

positioning themselves for ‘Simpler Recycling’ because

they envisage it’s going to be a big part of their business

going forward,” he says. “The private smaller waste firms

are very quiet at the minute and those customers are

hanging on to their equipment for longer.”

Titan Trailers has already built six semi-leakproof food

waste trailers for one of its most important clients, Veolia.

Four are operating in Birmingham and two in Shropshire.

The company is now developing a fully leakproof trailer,

which is being built at its parent company factory in

Ontario, Canada. This should be ready for launch early in

2026.

“This will be primarily for food waste, so will be of great

interest to our large corporate clients,” explains Alex.

“The independent operator will probably not buy one

because it’s too restrictive for his day-to-day work. He

wants something that will do everything, for which we

would always recommend our normal trailer.

We wouldn’t recommend the use of the new fully

leakproof trailers for heavier general waste, as they are

designed for a specific role and are not as robust as our

standard landfill spec trailer.”

Food waste trailers can be lighter weight because they

are not designed to go on landfill sites. Instead they will

be tipping at anaerobic digestion plants, which convert

organic waste into biogas.

As with all of Titan’s trailers, the new leakproof versions

will use a moving floor to discharge. The system Titan

Trailers has chosen is from a European market-leading

supplier that specialises in discharge systems for difficult

cargoes such as waste food, fruit and veg.

“Companies collecting, say, oranges from Seville will

always find a few get crushed at the bottom and seep

juice,” says Alex.

“It is very acidic, so they need it to not leak onto the

bottom of the trailer and down onto the road. That’s a

much bigger market in mainland Europe because the UK

doesn’t grow as much citrus fruit as the rest of Europe

does, but we still produce an awful lot of waste, for which

we hope this new product will be of interest.”

Rather than a steel floor, the new food waste range will

have a heavy-duty floor made of aluminium and a 12-plank

moving floor system, with the running gear sitting on the

front bulkhead rather than under the floor.


Trailer Building Company Of The Month

“This means we can, in effect, offer a tanked floor with

the drive on the front operating the moving floor that can

handle up to 12 inches of liquid in the bottom of the cargo

floor system when the door is sealed,” says Alex.

Lightweight or not, Titan’s new food waste trailers will be

built to last, just like the rest of its range.

“If you want the best, come and see us – we believe we

build the best trailers on the market and they’re proudly

made in Great Britain,” says Alex.

Titan Trailers offers the toughest trailers on the market,

all proudly hand-built in the UK. Its UK assembly plant

in Middlesbrough was opened in 2016 by Canadian

manufacturer Titan Trailers, which was established in 1973.

To get into the UK marketplace, Titan first started shipping

complete products across the Atlantic in 2006, and that

initial success encouraged the firm to establish a UK

assembly facility.

Since then, Titan Trailers has built up a 25-strong

workforce with the capacity to build three trailers a week.

Development of the site has seen the best part of £3m

invested in buildings, infrastructure and facilities, including

a £117,000 investment in the paint shop. In 2023, after

an agreement with Newton Trailers to act as Titan’s

authorised dealer in the UK came to an end, Titan brought

its sales operation in-house under the leadership of UK

sales and service manager Cliff Holdsworth. He brings 18

years of service for Titan UK and a wealth of knowledge

and experience to the role.

Titan’s most popular product remains the heavy duty

patented Thinwall moving floor landfill spec trailer. The

sidewall design is two-skinned, with a thicker inner wall

to absorb the impact of all kinds of material loaded from

height so it isn’t transferred to the thinner outer wall.

To bring down costs for the UK buyer, Titan is looking

at sourcing more aluminium extrusions locally and from

mainland Europe. This will help reduce the shipping of

materials from the parent company in Canada and will

also support UK-based suppliers, which Titan is always

keen to do.

Titan has traditionally fitted the Keith Walking Floor but in

2018; to meet customer demand, it started to offer Cargo

moving floor systems as an option. The key difference

between Titan Trailers’ products and some of the European

competition is that Titan trailers are all hand-built in the

UK, making them the toughest and longest-lasting trailers

on the market.

“Our motto is ‘Strength Through Innovation’,” says Alex.

“Yes, our trailers cost more than the mass-produced

European brands, but there’s a good reason for that – put

them side by side in 10 years’ time and tell me which one

was worth the money. That’s why all our customers, both

corporate and independent, love our premium product –

they get better longevity and breakdowns are very few

and far between.”

The latest updates to the food waste trailer’s technical

specifications reflect a focus on durability, safety,

efficiency, and operator convenience. Titan Trailers are

constructed entirely from aluminium, including both the

body and chassis, making it strong yet lightweight, with a

130 cubic yard capacity.

Other specs include

t Cargo Floor ‘Speedster’ 12-plank aluminium floor, front

mounted drive on bulkhead (fully leakproof model)

t KEITH ‘Galosh’ V9 aluminium plank floor, under-chassis

mounted (semi-leakproof model)

t SAF running gear, choice of disc or drum, Opti-Tyre

TPMS fitted as standard

t Continental tyres on Alcoa alloy wheels (steel

available as a price deduction)

t Dawbarn Hydroclear tarp roof

t Full remote-control option for roof and rear-door

operation

t Side-mounted door controls to keep operator safe

from the rear-door operation

t Warning lights and sounders to notify when door in

operation and closed

t Highest quality paint finish in whatever colour the

customer needs to colour match the truck or company

branding.

Water Management Solutions Company Of The Month

Clear and Efficient Wastewater

Solutions

In this issue of Sustainability Today, we are pleased

to feature Dooley Consulting as our Wastewater

Management Solutions Company of the Month.

Founded by Clare and Michael Dooley in September

2023, Dooley Consulting operates within the

wastewater treatment industry, specialising in

optimising treatment processes, troubleshooting

operational issues, and designing systems from

influent to effluent.

“Michael and I have over 20 years of experience each

working in the water industry. Our company, Dooley

Wastewater & Environmental Consulting Ltd, helps

wastewater treatment plants solve problems, work

more efficiently, and improve or design new systems.

In the past we’ve tackled big challenges, like during

COVID-19 when the technology we developed could

detect the virus in wastewater about two weeks before

it was detected in the community at large. We also

turned a scientific idea—capturing virus particles on

filter paper—into a real, practical method that makes

sample logistics faster and easier, without needing

to move fragile water samples under refrigerated

conditions,” said Clare.

Based in Bathgate, West Lothian, Dooley Wastewater &

Environmental Consulting Ltd works with clients around

the world. Its wastewater treatment service is unique,

offering customised instrumentation & consultancy

solutions to ensure they provide the right match for

each application, meeting the specific needs and

challenges of all clients.

“We are solutions driven, bringing unique and rapid

assessments with a focused approach to analysis

and reporting. We work closely with your existing

operational and engineering teams to troubleshoot

the challenges, and design unique turnkey solutions

with minimal capital investment. We have many years

of experience running treatment works, designing and

developing mechanical, electrical and instrumentation

solutions whilst integrating these with advanced PLC

and automation systems.

In terms of reducing energy in wastewater aeration,

which consumes 2% of all global energy, given that only

20% of wastewater is treated globally, our technology

has incredible potential for climate good. Plus better

treatment controlled reduced greenhouse gas

emissions,” added Clare.

What sets Dooley Consulting apart is its extensive

engineering and process knowledge base,

combined with a capability to rapidly develop new

Instrumentation and Process Engineering solutions

coupled with a dedication to providing clients with

accurate data and reliable instruments that keep

wastewater treatment systems running smoothly

every day. Every instrument they design or install helps

client’s lower energy use, reduce chemical consumption,

and maximise resource recovery—all while staying fully

compliant with environmental regulations. We also

partner with like minded manufacturers around the

world to Distribute their solutions in the UK market. If

companies provide auto-cleaning and auto-calibration

capabilities and share our ethos of customer service

excellence then we will be interested to work with

them. We currently distribute Instru and WaterSam

in the UK and are in late-stage discussions with other

manufacturers regarding their products.

“Our Auto-Clean and Auto-Calibration range of

instruments, with the OUR Sensor are designed

for use in both Aeration Systems of the Activated

Sludge Process and Clean Water applications. Our

Auto-cleaning systems are highly effective and when

combined with consumable free (or very low volume

consumable consumption) we can ensure the most

accurate and reliable sensors on the market. For

example, if Dissolved Oxygen Probes were regularly

and efficiently cleaned this is known to have a 10%

difference in accuracy which has huge energy savings,

financial implications, and negative GHG impact. Most

sites operate on a higher DO setting to compensate for

this drift,” said Clare.

Dooley Consulting was able to demonstrate the

INSTRAN Ammonia Analyser’s unique features of

auto-cleaning and auto-calibrating at WWEM 2024.

Prepared to comply with Section82 of the Environment

Act 2021, it is the best analyser solution for monitoring

water. Offering high accuracy, low maintenance, autocalibration

every measurement by standard known

addition as well as auto-cleaning to adapt the analyser

to waste water samples, low consumption of reagents

to increase autonomy, essentially INSTRAN is an online

analyser to measure different chemical and physical

parameters in aqueous solutions, such as drinking

water and waste water, which allows automated

control of the parameter.

“I was really proud to watch Michael Dooley

demonstrating how our new RTC SensorRange works

live at WWEM2024! Alongside our new Distribution

Product, the INSTRAN on-line Ammonia Analyser,

supported by Carlos Salinas Señis.

RTC Sensor system had the ability to analyse and

provide consumable free auto calibration of - Dissolved

Oxygen, Mixed Liquor Suspended Solids and Oxygen

Uptake Rate, not just in Rivers or Wastewater

Treatment Facilities and it’s also small enough to be

used in a lab.

Combining this with the ability to measure ammonia

online, by implementing reliable, automated known

standard addition calibration protocols every

measurement, the INSTRAN unit is setting a new

benchmark for ammonia measurement accuracy and


Water Management Solutions Company Of The Month

by several global blue-chip clients to improve treatment

capacity and operating costs base. Within these

projects we use our own developed instrumentation

as well as our other like-minded distribution partners

instruments. Now that our developed products have

completed long term reliability trials, we expect the

sales of these instruments to have significantly greater

share of our turnover.” Of course, where the solution

already exists in the market, we will recommend other

manufacturers solutions as our key objective is to solve

the customers problems as quickly as possible. Since

our founding 2 years ago we have

stability, which is essential for rigorous regulatory

compliance, as required by Section82 and all other

applications.

This combination of instrumentation for Section82

results in significant reductions in energy costs,

reductions to operator/lab/sampler technicians’ time, is

consumable free - (Instran Ammonia minimal reagents

consumption), and allows for auto-cleaning and autocalibration

of all parameters,” said Clare.

Clare continued to explain the company’s recent

collaboration for the Section82 River Water

Monitoring programme:

“All English Water Companies are being mandated to

monitor the river before and after their storm overflow

and discharges to River courses. Our instrumentation

will measure ammonia, DO, conductivity, temperature

pH and turbidity, ensuring fit for purpose for rural

installations with appropriate remote access to data

and power supply to ensure at least one month

running without servicing requirements. We have the

only ammonia ISE set-up from INSTRU that will ensure

the integrity of the ammonia measurement- testing

and calibrating every 15 minutes. We believe that this

auto-calibrating approach will significantly improve

data reliability and will not only significantly reduce

reactive service call outs but we will be able to push

servicing intervals to at least three months without

requiring any human intervention.”

Dooley Consulting also launched at WWEM 2025

an advanced Toxicity Analyser. The ToxSens fully

automates the Toxicity Measurement Process and

the same unit can be installed as both an online

and laboratory instrument set up for ease

of use and minimum intervention. This

analyser will be able to measure the

toxicity of a waste in relation to

the actual WWTP’s own bacterial

population in addition to using

standardised bacterial sources

such as Daphnia.

“The ToxSens gives our

customers confidence in,

for example, whether a

tanker is able to send its

waste straight to treatment

or whether pretreatment

or further considerations are

needed to treat a particular waste,”

added Clare.

Dooley Consulting is committed to creating

innovative solutions, as shown through its RTC

Instrumentation. And if a solution doesn’t yet exist,

Dooley Consulting will build it. This approach not only

ensures compliance but also lowers operational costs

and reduces greenhouse gas emissions—particularly

carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide.

Rather than shoehorning generic, off-the-shelf

solutions, Dooley Consulting tailors treatment systems

with innovative, site-specific designs—a capability that

both Clare and Michael are extremely proud of.

We asked Clare what their most popular service is

and why:

“Currently our consulting services are being widely used

t Provided support for customers to deploy

equipment in ATEX atmospheres.

t Provided project management support for Aeration

systems installations in high hazard environments

including confined space entry, flammable

atmospheres, rope access and LOLER regulations

compliance.

t Designed several new wastewater treatment

systems including high volume activated sludge

processes, DAF and Filtrations systems, MBBR

Systems, Instrumentation and Automation systems,

t Developed 3 new instrumentation and sampling

devices.

Looking ahead, Clare explained the company’s future

plans:

“We are constantly innovating in our

RTC instrumentation Ltd sister

company. We are listening

to the market needs and

are designing products

to meet those needs.

We are looking to sell

(and or form global

partnerships) our

innovative products

to bigger names in

the market to ensure

our climate mitigating

products reach a wider

audience- creating a wider

global benefit.

We have had several

approaches from global companies

to take on our new instruments. The

feedback we have received is that the big

players in the marketplace have difficulty bringing

innovation to market with the constraints of huge

organisations in a timely manner. We will look to meet

and exceed these needs.

Our capabilities for developing Innovations and

Technology development, delivered in a rapid agile

cost-effective manner is our core strength. We are

always open to discussions with potential clients and

collaborators.”

Velorim, founded in

Staffordshire by Russ

Taylor and Richard Lawrence,

traces its roots back to a

bicyclerecycling charity that

uncovered a frustrating

recycling gap: no-one handled

bicycle tyres or inner tubes. In

order to address that challenge,

Velorim launched its National

Bicycle Tyre Recycling Scheme

in 2018, establishing the UK’s

first dedicated network for

cycling rubber collection.

The scheme began with

only a few collection sites,

but has since expanded to

over 700 locations across

the UK, typically bike shops

and refurbishment charities.

Velorim recommends that

cyclists pay a small levy to the

Velorim Centres to responsibly

recycle these materials.

Behind the scenes, Velorim’s

innovative processing

separates rubber, steel, and

fibre, transforming them into

valuable products. The rubber is

reengineered into trademarked

materials like VeloButylene

and VeloSBR, while fibre will

eventually be broken down and

used for fuel and graphene,

Velorim’s pioneering shredding

machinery even tackles the

challenge of the tough metal

bead in bicycle tyres.

As of late 2024, Velorim had

collected and recycled more

than 150,000 tyres and the

same number of tubes, and

plans to double its UK collection

points by the end of 2026,

solidifying their role in making

UK cycling truly sustainable.

Beyondly’s perspective: Evolving RAM to drive

circular packaging solutions

Circularity means thinking bigger than whether

materials can be collected and reprocessed, it’s

about designing packaging systems that cut

waste, lower carbon, and create lasting value for

businesses, consumers, and the planet.

With new UK circular economy policies on the

horizon and growing debate over alignment

with the EU’s Packaging and Packaging Waste

Regulations (PPWR), Beyondly’s Alex Hilton will

examine how the Recyclability Assessment

Methodology (RAM) must adapt to meet

the future of regulation.

The packaging sector is in the spotlight

like never before. There are new

opportunities to drive change, new

rules, ambitious sustainability goals, and

increasing expectations from both regulators

and consumers. One of the key tools shaping how

businesses respond is the RAM, now a mandatory

framework for assessing packaging recyclability.

The RAM is now an obligatory tool for assessing

packaging recyclability, but to truly meet the

ambitions of Extended Producer Responsibility

(EPR), it must evolve, but how?

That’s the question that Alex Hilton - Director of

Policy and Public Affairs at Beyondly and

one of the driving forces behind the

creation of RAM - will tackle on the

Circular Innovation Stage at Recycling

Expo.

This conversation is especially timely,

considering the forthcoming circular

economy strategy and the debate on

how this should align with the EU’s PPWR

and other wider factors including lifecycle carbon

assessment. Alex will be sharing his personal

insights into the tools’ methodology and its

current strengths and outline enhancements that

could transform it into a driver to circularity.

Businesses are facing pressure on multiple

fronts, from regulations, customers, and their

own sustainability commitments, and need clear,

practical direction on what comes next.

If you are attending Recycling Expo and are

involved in packaging compliance, packaging design

or sustainability strategy - this is not a session to

miss. Alex’s unique perspective, shaped by both

his role in creating RAM and his work at Beyondly,

offers clarity on where recyclability assessment sits

today and where it must go tomorrow.

Protecting Plants and People:

Matt Elliott to Address Recycling Expo 2025

M

att Elliott, UK Head of Sales

at IEP Technologies, will be

speaking at The Recycling

Expo 2025 on 7th October from

13:15 to 13:45. His presentation,

titled “Explosive Waste & Fire

Prevention: Protecting

Sites, Equipment &

Lives,” comes at a critical

time when plant safety,

regulatory compliance,

and risk mitigation are

more vital than ever.

Bringing a sharp

engineering perspective and

practical industry insight,

Matt will outline how ignition

sources can be mitigated to

prevent fires during shredding,

waste handling, baling, and

waste storage operations. He

will also explore how, in certain

processes, IEP Technologies can help prevent potential

ignition sources from developing into fire and in some

cases devastating explosions which both threaten entire

facilities.

With over 60 years of experience delivering marketleading

explosion protection solutions, IEP Technologies

has built a reputation for safety and innovation—and

Matt is a key part of that legacy. A qualified mechanical

engineer with an HNC and a decade of technical sales

experience in material handling and ATEX environments,

Matt and the UK team have the expertise to tackle

complex safety challenges. He and his teams primary

focus is helping customers mitigate fire & explosion risks

within industry by listening to their needs and designing

tailored explosion protection systems that comply with

regulations, IEP Technologies’ design guidelines, and EN

standards.

Founded in 1956 as one of the earliest pioneers in

industrial explosion protection, the company—then known

as Graviner—played a vital role in safeguarding

numerous industrial processing sectors in the

post–Second World War era. By 1959, Graviner

had already prevented 35 industrial explosions,

and over the decades, it evolved into a true

global leader in the field. With this

longstanding legacy of expertise,

the company has continued

to earn the trust of customers

across all five continents.

In 2015, the company joined

the HOERBIGER Safety

Solutions Group—a renowned

global manufacturer with a

distinguished history in the

automotive and compression

industries. Now operating as

IEP Technologies, and with access to

state-of-the-art facilities across Europe,

the US, Latin America, and Asia, the

company is supported by a dedicated team

spanning research and development, consultancy,

service, and maintenance. This powerful combination

of heritage, expertise, and global reach positions IEP

to deliver advanced, cutting-edge explosion protection

solutions to process industries worldwide.

The UK operations are based in Cheltenham; however

IEP Technologies is a globally operating market

leader in explosion protection. The company offers a

comprehensive range of solutions — from simple passive

systems such as venting, flameless venting, and isolation,

to advanced active systems including suppression

technologies.

IEP Technologies has recently expanded its portfolio with

the addition of the ATEXON spark detection system — a

market-leading and uniquely designed solution. Spark

Detection and Extinguishing Systems are widely used

across industrial facilities to prevent and mitigate the

risk of fires and explosions. They work by continuously

monitoring processes for potential ignition sources

such as sparks, embers, hot particles, or overheated fan

components. By choosing an Atexon system with FM

Approval, users can be confident that it has undergone

thorough testing and certification by a globally

recognized, nationally accredited testing laboratory.

A core element of the system is the innovative SD300-

EX Spark Detector. Designed to reliably detect ignition

sources in both visible and infrared light wavelengths, it

maintains exceptional accuracy even in dense material

flows. The SD300-EX also offers a wide 180° field of view,

minimising blind spots and often reducing the number

of detectors required. For certain applications, it can be

installed without welding, helping to lower installation

time and costs. What’s more, each detector is constructed

with corrosion-resistant stainless steel (AISI 316L)

housings to ensure long-term durability.

In addition to achieving globally recognised FM

Approval, the Atexon system has recently undergone a

comprehensive design upgrade — delivering enhanced

performance, greater application flexibility, and improved

ease of installation for users.

“Our market leading spark detection systems are FM

approved and have been put to work heavily in the

recycling industry. More specifically where companies

are processing materials susceptible to fire, from paper/

cardboard, wood, municipals, rubber/ plastics, and RDF.

These prevention systems have proved valuable on many

processes such as shredding, bailing, sorting, and material

transfer points. Our customers have seen tangible risk

reduction of small ignition sources developing into large

fires in areas with a rich fuel source – which can so often

have devastating effects. Together We Save Lives,”

stated Matt.

DO YOU

KNOW YOUR

EXPLOSION

RISK?

No matter what you're processing – chemicals, food,

pharmaceuticals, biomass, wood products – if it produces dusts

or powders, there's a high probability you have an explosion

risk. All it takes to interrupt plant productivity is a combustible

material, oxygen and an ignition source.

For more than six decades, IEP Technologies has provided the

right explosion protection solution for every type of process

application. From cyclones and dust collectors to milling

equipment and dryers. We can design a protection

system and surround you with 24/7 service and support.

Protecting plant starts with knowing your explosion risk.

Explosion

suppressor:

eSUPPRESSOR

The IEP

Technologies

eSUPPRESSOR

is a high-rate

discharge

suppressor used

for explosion

suppression and

isolation systems. Its

electro-mechanical

operation is unique

to the industry, as no

pyrotechnic devices are

required for activation.

The eSUPPRESSOR has

standard features that include

pressure monitoring, lock out tag out

capability and LED indication of device

status. A key benefit is that all the

safety functions are fully monitored,

which is not possible for any device

employing pyrotechnic actuators. The

eSUPPRESSOR design & manufacture

has SIL2 third party certification.

Spark Detection:

Atexon ®

Passive Protection Devices:

The ‘Next Generation’ Atexon ® Spark Detection and

Extinguishing systems by IEP Technologies have recently

received third party approval by Factory Mutual (FM),

meeting the latest detailed requirement of FM3265:2020. For

UK users the equipment is also certified to UKCA, UKEX and

VDS certification is in the pipeline. The innovative Atexon ®

SD300-EX series spark detector is a world first being able to

detect visible light (VIS), near infrared light (NIR) and infrared

light (IR), with a 180° field of view. The benefit being it has

the ability to see different ignition sources though material

layers, even with dense material flow, with reduced hardware.

Typically, the most cost-effective explosion protection method in terms of

hardware, install and maintenance is IEP Technologies’ passive protection

devices. These include vents, flameless vents and isolation devices. Explosion

relief panels are calculated to vent a deflagration, and in doing so prevent

the rapid developing pressure. This reduces the chance of vessel rupture, and

structural damage. Similarly flameless vents work by the same principle, allowing

the heat and pressure dissipation but differ from a traditional vent by mitigating

the flame from passing into the atmosphere outside the flame arrestor. This type

of venting method has all the benefits of traditional venting but has the added

benefit of reducing the chance of possible injuries to personnel. Vent sizing is

based on several different factors, call us today to discuss your options.

IEP Technologies have been global leaders in providing

explosion protection solutions for many decades.

Envirovue Director Shares

Guidance on Upcoming

Waste Regulations

Daniel Redfern,

Director at

Envirovue, an

innovative waste

management

specialist, shares

advice on how

businesses can

prepare for the new

legislation.

"The new rules will force drastic

improvements across waste

management, both from an

environmental and efficiency point

of view.

"For businesses with a variety of

streams, separating waste can

become complex and time-consuming.

Food waste is inevitable for most

large businesses in the UK, and whilst

it may have previously been disposed

of with general waste, from March

2025 it must be separated.

"For companies producing a large

amount of waste, it's useful to

implement a tracking

system to record how

much food waste your

business generates

and where it goes. This

makes it easier to see if

too much food is being

produced. Organic waste

can also be of value—it

can be used as compost

or raw material for

anaerobic digestion.

"To avoid a fixed penalty notice,

companies must understand the

types and frequency of waste

produced. Investing in waste surveys

and collecting insightful data is key to

identifying areas where waste can be

reduced and managed.

"Choosing the best waste

management partner is also vital.

Working with accredited food waste

recycling services ensures compliance

with the new regulations."
