Croft Engineering Services unveils new environmental initiative
Croft Engineering Services, of Risley, Warrington, has set up the Croft Interchange, a new service created as part of a Shell STEP programme.
The Croft Interchange is driven by the idea that many companies spend thousands of pounds every year on throwaway filters; a practice that wastes resources and harms the environment.
This new service will address this problem: instead of throwing away used filters, they can be sent to Croft Engineering Services who will assess whether there is an opportunity to supply a metal filter to do the same job.
Throwaway filters are typically sent to landfill and some even qualify as special or hazardous waste, which can be costly to dispose of correctly and harmful to the environment if it is treated as regular waste.
Metal filters can be engineered to customer specifications to meet even the most stringent of filtration problems, and once they have been used, Croft Engineering Services can help devise an onsite cleaning method, or refurbish old metal filters to enable them to be reused. The waste produced by filtration can also be disposed of in an environmentally friendly way, such as composting.
