- Regulation continues to support our business model, including increased incineration taxes in Belgian regions and the Vlarema 8 legislation in Flanders
- Increased demand for recyclates, combined with shorter-term supply constraints, has led to current higher recyclate prices; longer term outlook is for sustained value from secondary materials
- As detailed in the Group’s recent Capital Markets Event, our investments in circular innovations are expected to deliver an additional €20m of EBIT by the end of 2025. Further projects remain under development
- The Renewi 2.0 programme remains on track to deliver €20m of savings by FY24 and is currently delivering run rate benefits of €4.0m
- ATM has shipped over 400k tonnes, representing 31% of legacy TGG stocks, and outlets for secondary construction materials are developing. As previously indicated, low intake of inbound contaminated soil will delay the full ATM profit recovery
-
- Our business enables a circular economy: sustainability is core to our business strategy and Renewi contributes to the net avoidance of over 3 million tonnes of CO2 per annum
- Newly committed innovation projects expected to underpin our target to increase the Group’s recycling rate by 10 percentage points to 75% and avoidance of a further 0.5 million tonnes of CO2 per annum
- Innovation pipeline progressing, especially with bio-LNG, construction materials and RetourMatras
- Continuing supportive regulation and increasing market demand for circular solutions
