MBA Polymers, the world leading multinational plastics recycling company, has announced that it has received a new and significant financial injection from its investors. The new investment in the business will allow MBA to expand its operations in Worksop to drive growth and further improve production efficiency.
MBA Polymers Chief Executive Nigel Hunton commented, “This is a sign of real confidence in our business going forward and this new funding will enable us to complete improvements which will enhance operational performance and expand capacity at our UK plant at Worksop, Notts.”
MBA will be receiving an increased level of shredded plastic waste from cars because of the coming on-stream of EMR’s new plant at Oldbury, Birmingham, the largest recycling plant in the UK. The new facility will provide MBA with greatly enhanced levels of the raw material for MBA’s recycled plastic end product.
Added Hunton, “Taking these moves together, we expect that during the year we will be able to expand production, increase efficiency and expand capacity. 2014 is looking very positive for MBA Polymers with some great opportunities in front of us.”
