Recycling WEEE plastics is a complex, multi-stage process. Raw materials come in. They’re weighed, processed, tested, bagged, and dispatched. Every step matters. Every detail counts. And every mistake costs time, money, and compliance risk.

For a leading waste management and resource recovery company, managing this with spreadsheets and paper-based systems was becoming impossible.

Weighbridge tickets were handwritten. Certificates of analysis were stored in folders. Stock levels were tracked manually. And reporting? A nightmare.

It was frustrating. It was risky. And it was holding the business back.

That’s when they partnered with Avrion to build a custom Recycling Management Software solution.

The new system digitised the entire workflow – from raw material intake to finished product dispatch. Orders, weighbridge tickets, batches, bags, and test results were all tracked in one place. Dashboards gave real-time visibility into production. Compliance was built in, with secure audit trails and locked records.

The transformation was dramatic.

No more lost paperwork. No more manual errors. No more guesswork. Just a smooth, scalable, compliant process that empowered every team – from operations to quality control to sales.

If your recycling operation still runs on spreadsheets, it’s time to upgrade. A tailored software solution doesn’t just improve efficiency – it gives you control, confidence, and a competitive edge.
