"Others see a waste, we see a resource"
Recycling Services
With over 60 years experience working in the farming and agricultural industry, our parent company ADAS identified the potential to recycle various material to land in order to provide a benefit to soils though fertiliser value or improving soil organic matter. Indeed, the ADAS Safe sludge matrix is the guideline accepted by Water UK that is used to ensure sewage sludge can be safely recycled to land.

With our historic links to farming and our team of soil scientists, Envar reviews waste products from industrial processes and identifies if they can be safely recycled to land for agricultural or ecological benefit. We combine our established name in the farming industry with our scientific expertise and our knowledge of environmental legislation to develop recycling to land outlets for a variety of waste materials.
Envar analyses your waste product to identify what properties it contains. Often these properties have a benefit to agriculture by providing nutrients, trace elements or organic matter to the soil. After analysing the waste, Envar uses its team of Fertiliser Application Certificate (FACTS) qualified staff to establish the potential of the material, if recycled to land, to benefit the crop, soil and farmers. Envar applies to the Environment Agency for a waste management licensing exemption allowing us to recycle the material safely.
